G.S. Schwartz is a great company to intern at if you are first getting into PR. All the employees are very friendly and willing to teach you the ropes. I gained some great real-world experience in public relations. I sent out a lot of pitches, created media lists, and conducted social media research. I would have liked to opportunity to write a little, but all-in-all it was a positive experience.
