The positions have been in the sales, marketing and technical departments. Runner EDQ’s internship program was and is offered to both graduate and undergraduate students. As part of this program, students will receive the “real world experience” that companies require while students are in and graduate college.

“Our interns get a vast amount of experience in all facets of our business, from software development all the way through the sales funnel,” says Greg Marinello, President of Runner EDQ. “We strive to give our interns a fulfilling experience while providing the knowledge they need in their field of studies.”

The sales and marketing interns have been spearheading a variety of projects daily. Each of these FAU interns has the “can do” attitude. They have experience developing new opportunities with focused and personalized modern sales practices along with aligning the Runner EDQ CLEAN_Address product to the customer needs. The high value of the “voice of the customer” is taught on day one. These interns have also gained knowledge in setting up product demonstrations to share how to reduce measurable mailing costs and deliver critical sometimes compliant on-time mail.

Spending time here at Runner EDQ, “I have gained the clear understanding of the importance of delivering the highest level of customer service and satisfaction,” said Jack Tusa (FAU intern).

“The internship program here at Runner EDQ has awarded me the valuable experience in sales and how it integrates into a corporate environment. The knowledge I have gained will propel me to success in the job market following graduation,” said Anthony Cox (FAU intern).

After graduation, most companies look at work experience during the college years. The Runner EDQ intern program intends to help prepare these FAU interns to be ready for the workforce through the experience and training they receive while at Runner EDQ.
