Description

Dream Careers is the #1 All-Inclusive Summer Internship Program for college students in Chicago.

Dream Careers Chicago provides the perfect blend of new and familiar cultural experiences. Chicago has endless possibilities available for students looking for an internship and we offer placement into the most prestigious and well known companies around the globe.

The Program has 4 components:

1) Guaranteed Internship Placement:

You will be assigned to a Placement Agent who will place you in a summer internship in Chicago in the industry of your choice. Students are placed at top public relations firms. In the past, we have worked with employers such as PR Chicago, All Terrain, Kurman Communications, Empower PR and many others. The program guarantees all enrolled PR participants placement in a PR internship and will support you throughout the summer to make sure that you get the most out of your internship.

2) Room & Board:

You will receive room & board at Loyola University Chicago's Baumhart Residence Hall, located in the heart of the city and right off of Michigan Ave., where you be living with 200 other college students enrolled in the Program. The Program also provides daily transportation to and from work.

3) Weekend Excursions:

Each weekend the Program takes the entire group on fun weekend excursions to some of the most exciting destinations in and around Chicago. Weekend excursions such as a comedy show at Second City, Dinner Cruise on Lake Michigan, an overnight in Lake Geneva, a Cubs or White Sox game and many others ensure that you experience the best things to see and do in the Windy City.

4) Seminar Series:

Once a week Dream Careers participants are given the rare opportunity to attend seminars to hear the stories and advice of corporate CEOs, best-selling authors, high-powered political figures and famous figures from the entertainment world. The Seminar Series is a uniquely inspiring and educational forum that changes students lives by giving them the confidence, strategies and support they need to discover and pursue their career dreams.
