Spanning 10 weeks, four graduates have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hone content marketing skills while also exploring new destinations and having one last chance to live it up like a university student.
Applications are open through July 7 and those with a passion for travel, social media and storytelling can apply here by submitting a 60-second video showcasing the spirit of their college town.
Participating Graduate Hotels properties include Nashville, Tennessee; Columbus, Ohio; Ann Arbor, Michigan; Madison, Wisconsin; Seattle, Washington; Palo Alto, California; Providence, Rhode Island; New Haven, Connecticut; New York, New York; Oxford, United Kingdom; and Cambridge, United Kingdom.
