Cramer-Krasselt Internships & Company Overview

Cramer-Krasselt offers summers internships to aspiring advertising professionals. Most internships are located in their Chicago headquarters.

Cramer-Krasselt is an American integrated marketing and communications agency. It is the second-largest independent agency in the U.S. according to Advertising Age in terms of revenue and is probably best known for its ads for Corona Beer.

The agency was founded in 1898 in Milwaukee by Fred "Cody" Cramer and William Krasselt. They relocated their headquarters to Chicago in the mid-1980s.

Other clients include AirTran Airways, Porsche Cars North America, Benjamin Moore, Heinz, Bombardier Recreational Products (including Sea-Doo and Ski-Doo brands), Edward Jones, Johnsonville Sausage, Sealy and TransUnion's TrueCredit.com. One of their contributions to pop culture beyond commercials was the stealth disco meme.

Pros:

- Everybody at Cramer-Krasselt took me under their wing to show me to ropes. We also did lunch and after work stuff together, good culture.
- Paid (many ad internships aren't).
- Did real pr work. Outreach to publications (many digital) and put together a list of all client mentions.
- It's really cool to work in an ad agency.

Cons:

Not sure how they hire entry level candidates (should depend on account flow).

Advice for other students:

Ad agency internships are tough to come by. You have to be creative and aggressive to get your foot in the door.
