The PRCA have published a set of intern guidelines this week aimed at their members, the public relations and communications industry as a whole and aspiring interns who are looking for a PR career.
These guidelines contain the results from their survey conducted with Intern Aware last year, which revealed that over 70 per cent of internships in public relations and communications remain unpaid.
In an attempt to ensure best practice when it comes to dealing with internships, the document shares tips on how to find the right intern, how much they should be paid and what they should be doing whilst at your company. And interns take note, there's even some handy tips in there for you; such as how to apply and how to conduct yourself in an interview.
