The Terakeet Apprenticeship Program
Terakeet is for every future.
Our apprenticeship program is designed to help build technical and professional skills needed to jumpstart your career.
A Strong City
In Syracuse, we pride ourselves on our grit and determination to be a better community for every citizen. At Terakeet, we know putting in the work to be an equitable, socially responsible company is never finished. We believe in Syracuse and its ability to cultivate talented and motivated people. This is why we are excited to announce the launch of our second Terakeet Apprenticeship Program for Central New York locals.
“This is one of the warmest, most welcoming jobs I've ever worked in.” — Digital Outreach Specialist (former Apprentice) Joey Diaz
All the Benefits
This 12-month Digital Marketing Apprenticeship is a paid program with full benefits designed to offer you in-depth training and knowledge on the fundamentals of marketing and search engine optimization (SEO). But this isn’t just about learning industry basics. Through guided mentorship, this apprenticeship program will also help you grow your communication and writing skills, and it will allow you to gain valuable business experience. Terakeet apprentices will be focused on identifying online publishers (such as bloggers and journalists) who can help our customers amplify their content across the web, while also learning from other Terakeet departments that make our marketing strategies successful.
But don’t take our word for it.
Hear from last year’s apprentices!
The Full Experience
Throughout the program, you will have the opportunity to collaborate closely with a team of SEO experts, content strategists, writers, and other members of the outreach team. The program will be part hands-on and part classroom-style learning. You will be guided the entire way by a manager and a strong team of smart, supportive peers.
"Terakeet includes everyone and takes an interest in their employees' future." — Digital Outreach Specialist (former Apprentice) Anastasia Parks

🌟 Introducing our BIPOC employee resource group! 🌟
Our BIPOC ERG is diverse, inclusive, respectful, and responsive to the intersectionality of its members. What started out as a Slack channel has evolved into a formalized safe space for employees of color who want to explore and unpack their experiences within Terakeet, advocate for change, and engage in conversations that promote cultural sensitivity and inclusion at work.
Our two ERGs are led by team members who are elected by their respective affinity group. We asked the BIPOC ERG leadership team to share their hopes for the group, which include helping Terakeet become a more inclusive and supportive workforce. Swipe through to read their thoughts, and check out today's blog article to learn more (link in bio)!
We couldn't be prouder of our team for their work in organizing and leading the group and supporting Terakeet in becoming a more equitable organization!
