Megan Hoffman

Marketing intern for the Pittsburgh Steelers

"As the marketing intern, many phone calls come to me so I must serve as the 'voice' of the marketing department. People call with questions, complaints, and seeking general information, so I need to know how to properly answer their questions and where to direct their inquiries. Also, I organize company sponsorship listings from the previous season and assist with events going on at Heinz Field. A number of different tasks can come up during my workday, so I always have to be prepared to complete them."
