This sounds like an absolutely awesome opportunity. I really like the metaphor that you used for the hats. I find it relatable especially because when you go into a marketing internship, it seems like your job description will be somewhat straightforward, when in reality, you end up “collecting more hats” than you ever thought possible. I love Hip City Veg and although I have never heard of the parent company, I am sure it has been totally cool working for them. Good luck in future endeavors!

I love the metaphor on hats that you used to explain all of the skills you gained and applied at your internship! Thinking of hats as you have, I love wearing them too. Being a “multi-faceted” person is something I would describe myself as also. Sometimes it’s hard to choose one passion, and it certainly doesn’t feel right to imagine yourself doing the same work for the rest of your life. Your experience shows that multiple interests and skills are amazing things to have. Your constant pursuit of something new paid off at Marquis and Co., as you were able to juggle a constant switch in actions and mindsets. This was great to hear and very comforting, too.

I was SO surprised when I realized how many different skills and tasks I would acquire while working in the industry for my internship. It’s interesting hearing your take on it, seeing that you’ve had a similar experience! When people ask what I do for my job, it’s always hard to narrow it down to just one or two things because of it. You described it really well using the hat comparison.

Also, I could relate to the struggle of trying to manage it all at first. It’s tough, but we learn as we go, right?!
