    Job Description

    "There's a universe of opportunity at Amazon.

    At Amazon, your career doesn't follow a straight line. It accelerates, twists, and challenges you in ways you never expected. From the moment you join, you're part of something big: building products or services that reach millions and shaping how people live, work, and connect every day. This is where your ideas turn into real impact. You'll work with world class tools, global platforms, and systems built to operate at an extraordinary scale. You'll move fast, experiment and launch solutions that matter. With endless opportunities to explore across teams and roles, you'll learn quickly, apply what you know and discover skills you didn't know existed. This is an environment designed for builders who want to see the impact of their work in the world. Ready to start your adventure?

    What's in it for you?

    An internship at Amazon means real responsibility from day one. You'll build, test, and learn alongside people who want to see you succeed, while making an impact that reaches far beyond campus.

    Amazon's Communications & Corporate Responsibility (CCR) organization invites undergraduate students in their junior year to join us for a rewarding, paid 12-week summer internship. This is the opportunity you're looking for if you have a passion for learning about corporate communications (public relations, messaging strategy, social media, employee communications, and much more); a desire to explore and learn what it takes to deliver communications at a global scale; and thorough attention to detail. We're looking for candidates who want to share their diverse perspectives and experiences (whether from life, school, or prior work) to help us deliver high-quality communications on behalf of Amazon.

    During your summer internship, your responsibilities may include working with media/journalists, analyzing news coverage, writing company communications, developing content for Amazon news channels (e.g., aboutamazon.com) and social media channels (e.g., @insideamazon), drafting communication strategy, or supporting company events. Your internship will include one or more communication projects that you get to own and then recap your learnings and recommendations for CCR leaders. Along the way, you'll build valuable relationships with fellow interns, tenured communications professionals, and leaders from across the CCR organization.

    CCR is comprised of hundreds of communications professionals around the globe. We are responsible for informing customers, employees, media, and policymakers about Amazon's unique culture of innovation and customer centricity. CCR aims to continuously strengthen Amazon's reputation and trust with customers by educating the world about Amazon's products and services, and how we support employees, small businesses, partners, content creators, developers, communities, environment, and economies where we operate.

    Please note that we are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role.

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
