Social Media Intern

Does your screen time show an insane number of hours spent on TikTok per day? Don’t be ashamed. We like that sort of thing.

The Indianapolis Colts are seeking a highly motivated, meme-loving individual to fill a full-time, year-long social media internship position within the Creative, Content & Media department.
