BBDO will award several MET Fund internships for the summer of 2014 across our U.S. offices located in Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Minneapolis, and San Francisco.  Interns receive a $4,000 stipend for the ten-week internship.  If you are selected as an intern, we will try to place you in the office of your choice, but this is not guaranteed.
