Consumers today are more sophisticated and better educated than in any previous generation. They decide what they want and when they want it. At Nike, our challenge is to anticipate what they'll want and be ready with a solution. When we're really good, it's something -- a product, a service, a whatever -- that's so intuitively perfect the consumer hasn't even imagined it could exist. Your job? To make sure we know our consumers better than we know ourselves.

Benefits. You probably already know we have a pretty generous benefits package, but here's the highlight reel: a stock purchase plan, matching 401(k) retirement plan, on-site sports complex, childcare and full health insurance. There's not room here to mention every benefit we offer, but hopefully that'll give you a sense of how we take care of our own.

Are there any websites that deal primarily with agency internships, for aspiring bookers or developers?

 

[Yellowstar09]

I love this thread. I just feel so old for so many of these but this is what I love clothes.

 

[Cicciolina]

Are there any websites that deal primarily with agency internships, for aspiring bookers or developers?

If you're located in the US, I've seen a couple (from Ford for example) on Craigslist.

Otherwise, I think you could just contact them anyway to inquire about internships or work experience.
