For Employers

Hiring Medill students and alumni

Medill has a wealth of talented students and alumni in journalism and integrated marketing communications.

  • Undergraduate Students: Students in our undergraduate journalism and IMC Certificate programs are great candidates for internships, student work opportunities and entry-level positions.
  • Master’s Students: Students in our journalism master’s and IMC master’s programs have specialized knowledge in a particular area, and many have previous work experience. Some students are great candidates for student work opportunities and entry- to mid-level positions, while other students have more work experience and are great candidates for mid- to senior-level roles.
  • Alumni: We also accept job postings to help connect alumni with job opportunities. These individuals are many times mid-career to senior-level professionals.

Employers of our graduates tell us that Medill provides students with required training and skills that distinguish them on the job. Our students and alumni are problem-solving, solution-oriented assets for you and your company.
