Brag House Inc.

Digital Marketing Intern

March 2020 • Blacksburg, VA

What I liked

I loved the hands on activities and events we had as a company. The founders are AWESOME. They are very transparent and fun to be around. You are joining a family by becoming an intern and I love that about the internship. We all are collaborating from across the nation to help grow the company.

What I wish was different

I wish we had more interns! Virginia Tech is such a big school, more interns could help with our engagement involving Virginia Tech

Advice

To share your ideas and be communicative. These things will show that you have passion and care about what you are doing.

Live Stream Broadcast Intern

March - December 2021 • Victoria

What I liked

Firstly, the team. The camaraderie and team at Brag House is absolutely brilliant--from my managers, to my fellow interns, all the way up to CEO Lavell, they're all passionate, hardworking individuals who want not only the best from you, but the best for you. They're always there when you need them for advice, mentor-ship, or even just a friendly chat on a weekend evening. The hours are flexible-- it's a deadline-oriented scheduling system, so as long as you're able to finish all your work on time, its open as to when you work on it. The work is challenging, but rewarding, and definitely promotes learning new skills! I can recount times where I was asked to do things that I didn't necessarily have experience with or even now how to do, and without fail my teammates were always there to lend a hand and point me to the right resources to help me efficiently develop those skills to a professional standard.

What I wish was different

As I was an intern across 2021, there really is no getting past the fact that I was a remote intern. I would have done anything to have been in a position to be an in-person intern and get the chance to meet and hang out with my coworkers, but that simply wasn't possible given the existing pandemic climate.

Advice

You can NEVER ask too many questions here--its a startup, after all, and working quickly and efficiently is paramout. As Senior Production Manager Ryan Baker or COO Daniel Leibovich will tell you, they'd much rather take 20 seconds to explain something to you quickly so you can keep working instead of have you get stuck on an obstacle. Also, this isn't a "weekdays only" internship; you will have responsibilities on weekends--fun responsibilities that usually have to do with a tournament or event that we host--but responsibilities nonetheless.

Video Production Intern

June 2021 • Athens, GA

What I liked

I love interning at Brag House! There are so many things I can compliment about this company, but by far one of the things that has always stood out to me is the flexibility. As a college student, my schedule sometimes gets super busy, and unlike other places I have worked, Brag House is always willing to work with my schedule (no matter how hectic). The community here is like no other! Everyone is super welcoming and supportive. This internship has taught me so many new things and has helped me network and start growing my career. I would highly recommend checking out Brag House, even if you're not big into gaming or sports!

What I wish was different

I hate being that person, but truly there isn't anything I would change. I do wish we had more interns from University of Georgia, so we could brag about Georgia sports to everyone, :).

Advice

Be prepared to stay on top of your projects and have an open mind about changes! It may be overwhelming at first with the constant communication between different teams in the company, but it's all rewarding in the end when your final projects are better than you could have ever imagined!

Marketing Intern

March - August 2021 • Boston College, MA

What I liked

My time at Brag House was fun, enriching, and a worthwhile experience for my career development. As long as you put the effort in, your experience as an intern will be worthwhile. The management of the company, Daniel and Lavell, are both great people who were great to work under. At Brag House I was able to have a flexible schedule, an enjoyable time, and a worthwhile experience for myself. I greatly appreciate my time working as an intern at the company.

What I wish was different

Nothing comes to mind for things I would have preferred as an employee. The management at Brag House did a great job making everyone feel like an important part of the team with an important purpose for the company.

Advice

The more you put into an internship at Brag House, the more you will get out of it. If you are a dedicated and creative intern then the management of the company will give you free rein to utilize that passion. Do not sit back on the sidelines if you have an idea you would like to be heard, because the management will always listen to you with respect.

Marketing Intern

September - December 2020 • New York City, NY

What I liked

Being able to watch the company grow was an awesome experience. The upper-level management is so communicative and is always there to help with anything. Not only did my skills as a designer improve, but I was able to take on other projects and expand my horizons within marketing. The community and workplace environment is amazing and really helps to foster growth and intrapersonal relationships.

What I wish was different

I honestly would not change anything about the experience. Unfortunately, I had to do the internship remotely, but I was still able to connect with and bond with my fellow interns and other team members. I originally felt distant from other team members, but after expressing my concerns to management, they did an amazing job of hosting more virtual events and bring us all together online.

Advice

I think everyone should have the experience of working with a startup company, as it is an amazing experience to be able to grow alongside the brand. If you are looking for a tight-knit community, but also opportunities to learn skills and try new things, this is definitely the brand for you.

Graphic Design Intern

March 2020 • East Lansing, MI

What I liked

It's a very collaborative environment! It's a great place to throw your ideas out there and help your concept development skills grow. Everyone is very welcoming, Lavell and Daniel are some of the best bosses I've ever had. I've been given opportunities to take lead on graphics projects in my first month, something I wouldn't have imagined when I started. Great place if you are looking to get some great experience and propel yourself towards your future career.

What I wish was different

I wish it wasn't remote! I would love to be able to meet all the great people I've been working with thus far.

Advice

Don't be afraid to ask questions, our COO Daniel will tell you that over-communicating is far better than under-communicating. Never feel like you can't ask for more clarity on a project.

Marketing Brand Ambassador

February 2020 • Charlottesville, VA

What I liked

This internship has not only provided me the support to further explore my passions in the sports marketing sphere, but has allowed me to learn the inner workings of a start-up business. The CEO's Daniel and Lavell are nothing but supportive and helpful and has made this internship so meaningful! Brag ON!

What I wish was different

Literally nothing- seeing how much we have built the company into what it is today makes me so extremely proud! My fellow teammates work so hard together to make the Brag House what it is and seeing the fruits of our labor flourish is gratifying.

Advice

Put all of your passions into this internship, and be able to learn and grow along with it. Being flexible is key with the Brag House ,and wanting to learn more about college sports and esports is what it is all about. The Brag House gives you all the tools to be successful, and they really leave it up to you to learn as much and try out all of your own creative ideas!
