Honest Tea Internships

Honest Tea hires about 50 interns from LA to NYC to Austin. These internships are part of their Road Warrior internship. Around 10% of HonestTea's full time employees were Road Warriors (interns).

Road Warriors will have the chance to get creative with Guerilla marketing efforts. These interns will also gain access to major events and enjoy free tea.

Honest Tea, a leader in the organic bottled tea market, hires Sales & Marketing undergraduate summer interns who can take the brand to the next level. Honest Teas is a rapidly growing company with great opportunities for hard-working, resourceful, hands-on interns who can act as ambassadors for the Honest Tea brand across the country.

Honest Tea looks for interns who will be “road warriors” promoting Honest Beverages in retail stores and at consumer events as well as being apart of our in-store merchandising sales team. Interns will seek out guerrilla marketing/sampling opportunities wherever thirsty people can be found.

Event types include (but are not limited to): Consumer (outdoor concerts, film festivals, marathons, road races, and parades), Retail (college block parties, grand openings), In-Store Demos (sampling at Whole Foods, Fairway, etc.) and Guerilla (sampling on the street in key areas of major cities).*
