Do you have the passion and drive it takes to work in a quickly growing, mission-driven financial services company that creates a significant positive impact on this country’s economic health?
Golden Financial Services is an IAPDA Certified and Better Business Bureau “A+” rated debt relief company that’s been offering debt relief services in Arizona since 2004. The company provides a variety of debt relief programs including debt settlement, debt validation, consumer credit counseling and debt consolidation. Our programs focus on helping Americans with resolving their unsecured debt problems.
As a paid intern at Golden Financial Services, you’ll be educating your fellow Americans on how to navigate their way out of credit card debt and student loan debt, and on ways to save money. Part of your day to day marketing activities will be promotional, but most of your day will solely focus on creating and sharing non-promotional financial education.
Interns will use SEO and social media, to spread financial education. Even though Golden Financial Services is a debt relief company, the CEO at Golden Financial Services is also a renowned marketing guru. Paul Paquin, Golden Financial’s CEO, published an article on SemRush’s blog just this year (one of the most prominent marketing blogs/companies in the world). Paul’s piece ended up getting featured and received the top 3 most social media shares out of any article submitted on SemRush.com in 2018. The blog post was called “7 Killer Steps on How to Win at Local SEO” (click to see the article on semrush.com). This is who mentors the marketing interns at Golden Financial Services. If you become an intern, you’ll be working with Paul on a regular basis.
