Job and Internship Listings

Career Center/Action Without Borders - Non-profit job search engine.

Entry-level Public Relations and Advertising Jobs - Entry-level job vacancy list.

EntryLevelPR.com - EntryLevelPR.com was developed at the request of PR/communications professionals and students across the nation because (a) the lack of entry-level positions posted on popular job sites resulting from the cost to post an ad and (b) the number of different sites students have to go to in order to find all the different opportunities. So, we have created a one-stop-shop, so to speak, of entry-level and intern positions in the PR/communications fields.
