2014 Backstage Pass Summer Interns

Here at Drake Cooper we are often presented with quick-response, non-standard projects and campaigns that require agility, haste, and most importantly, thinking outside of the box. After being presented with these unique project opportunities time and again, Drake Cooper thought to set our sights on recruiting candidates for our Backstage Pass summer intern program that could become a crack team of multi-talented marketing SEALs to tackle these “special ops” for the agency.

When we began accepting applications for Backstage Pass, it didn’t take long for word to spread and for the resumes to roll in. With over 150 applications, we had a lot of ground to cover. We knew the best candidates would have experience and possess diverse skill sets so the team could be flexible when various tasks came about. Candidates driven to work in marketing and advertising and who saw a future in the industry were also a must. The competition was obviously fierce, with 150 apps for what would become only 4 spots in the program.

Ladies and gentlemen, please meet the cream of the crop, the DC special forces; our 2014 Backstage Pass interns.
