marty is our summer residency program!
(aka an epic 12-weeks where you get to Fight Invisibility)
We’re on the hunt for bold, creative minds ready to help us build the next big thing—ads, experiences, and internet-breaking moments for some of the world’s most iconic brands.
Think: viral activations that make headlines, ideas so wild they make AI question its existence, and cultural moments that leave people asking, “HOW?!” 🤯
So, slide in if these sound like you:
⚡You’ve dabbled in advertising—yes, just existing in a world where you see 10,000 ads a day totally counts. But you don’t just see them—you get excited about them. Maybe you even daydream about, "Wouldn’t it be cool if…?" or "What if an ad did this…?"
⚡ You love to MAKE THINGS: concepts, stories, videos, images, content that makes people laugh, cry, or question reality. Oh, and organizing the creative squirrels who make the work also counts!
⚡ You want to collab with a team of doers, dreamers, and disruptors who actually get it—and get you.
If these sound like you, then this is your summer to get experience and get paid to create culture—not just consume it. Put your name on work that matters. No coffee runs. No BS. No corporate cringe. Just creative mayhem.
Ready? Slide in. 🚀✨

social media manager at Martin. (marty ‘21)
“I learned so much as a resident – more than I could have imagined. Everything from social media to the advertising industry as a whole. I felt supported every step of the way, especially by connecting with fellow residents! By the end of the program, I felt more confident about the direction that I want to take my career.”
