Wray Ward has announced the application period for the agency’s annual FORM Internship is now open, inviting students from universities across the nation to apply for the Summer 2022 program. FORM is a paid, full-time summer internship in which nine talented interns work with their peers to conceptualize, develop and present an integrated marketing campaign to an agency client.

This year, the FORM internship program will run for 10 weeks, and offer opportunities for placement in nine service areas:

• Project Management / Client Engagement
• Copywriting
• Digital Media
• Public Relations / Content Marketing
• UX Design & Development
• Motion Content (Video)
• Graphic Design
• Insights
• Photography

The interns will experience the inner workings of an inspired marketing agency while honing their specific skills and applying what they’ve learned in school to effect change for agency clients.

“We’re looking for applicants who can bring diversity, drive and creativity to our company and culture, and work together just as they would in the professional world,” said Jennifer Appleby, president and chief creative officer of Wray Ward. “We’re hoping to spark these students’ passion and turn their talents into practical applications by providing them with a valuable, real-world experience, so they can more clearly see a career path that will go on to benefit the industry as a whole.”

Launched in 2017 as an evolution of the agency’s traditional internship experiences, FORM returns this summer after a successful 2021 summer, where the FORM team worked on a soon-to-be-launched program for Charlotte-based Girls Rock Charlotte, a community organization whose mission is to empower girls and gender diverse youth and adults through music and film education.

The agency’s new 40,000 square-foot office with its large and small workstations, collaboration spaces and outdoor areas along with the agency’s safety procedures allowed the interns to opt-in for an in-office experience.

Applications will be accepted through January 21, 2022. The program will run from May 31 – August 5, 2022. To learn more about FORM or apply, visit https://form.wrayward.com/.
