About the Role
We're seeking a bright, curious mind to join us as a Survey Research Intern for Fall 2025. This is an incredible opportunity to gain valuable hands-on experience and professional connections.
You'll dive into a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same. In the morning, you might be writing a survey about communicating the benefits of a service to a global audience. After lunch, you may help create data deliverables for clients.
A key component of this internship is a capstone project that serves as a tangible demonstration of your learning and contributions. This deliverable not only reinforces your practical experience but also enhances your professional portfolio, illustrating your ability to both lead a strategic effort and apply theoretical knowledge to real-world challenges.
This internship supports our Research & Analytics team. While every day at Storyline Strategies is different, your primary responsibilities will include:
- Assist in writing and proofing surveys, including desk research on input materials and scale development
- Participate in survey web link testing
- Gain exposure to statistical software (Q) and assist in the creation of client data deliverables
- Participate in client deliverables creation, including data analysis, visualization, formatting, and proofing decks and memos
- Proof and format data toplines & crosstabs
Who We're Looking For (Qualifications)
You're a college junior or senior, recent graduate, or a young professional with a keen interest in learning about survey development and analysis within communications consulting. You possess:
- Strong communication skills (a top priority for a remote role).
- Keen attention to detail.
- An unquenchable sense of curiosity.
- A love of numbers and language.
- A team- player mindset, with a strong work ethic and a willingness to tackle any challenge.
Regardless of your location, you'll be expected to be available during at least part of the standard Eastern Time business day to ensure effective collaboration.
