Iconic Promotions Partners with Local Colleges
The managers of Iconic Promotions recently announced the company is partnering with local colleges in order to provide new graduates with career and internship opportunities. The team is discussing career options with grads as well.
Sacramento, CA, May 29, 2015 (Newswire.com) - “May is a busy month on college campus,” said Nadia, Iconic Promotions’ director of operations. “College graduates are searching for positions or internships that will help them advance their careers. This is why we’ve chose to partner with local universities and community colleges. Our team understands what it’s like to find a position that will provide the experience needed to embark on new career.”
Nadia noted that Iconic Promotions is recruiting for both sales and marketing positions, as well as for the company’s internship program. “We’re scouting for motivated individuals who are enthusiastic about taking on new challenges,” she said. “The most important traits we’re in search of are a positive attitude, an eagerness to continue learning, and the ability to work well with a team. Our company culture is very much centered on teamwork and collaboration. This is what drives our success.”

Iconic Promotions delivers interactive marketing solutions to brands, which Nadia describes as being the “future of marketing.” She noted, “More brands are beginning to recognize that it’s nearly impossible to create the level of awareness they need to achieve goals through traditional advertising routes. Consumers are much savvier. They want to know more details, such as how the service will transform their lives. They want to be reached at a personal level. This is what we do. We connect brands with their consumer base.”
The company’s training and coaching program assure that new team members and interns have the necessary knowledge to succeed. “We guide them through everything, from research analysis to campaign execution. Learning is critical,” Nadia added.
Iconic Promotions Discusses the Benefits of Internships
One of the key reasons why Iconic Promotions has partnered with these colleges is to promote the company’s internship program to a broader audience. “Internships are great for college students and grads alike,” Nadia said. “You’ll gain experience and confidence in the industry that you can’t score in a classroom setting. Text books only prescribe certain methodologies, which are often based on theories or case studies. That doesn’t come close to what you’ll learn when you actually get to put your skills and knowledge to the test.”
Nadia advised individuals seeking internships to make sure that the company’s program is geared toward helping interns gain practical experience. “You want something concrete that you can add to your resume, like a project you’ve worked on,” she said. “Ask what you’ll be doing and whom you’ll be working with. Make sure that you’ll be hands on, not just shadowing team members as they perform their jobs. You’re not there to be the errand runner or coffee fetcher.”
“Internships should give you good look at what your career will be like,” Nadia concluded. “Make sure you gain as much in depth knowledge and experience needed, not only to complete your resume, but to help you ensure this is really the path you want to take. Even if you decide it’s not for you, the experience will still be valuable.”
