There are many perks that come with working at a small agency.  Bagel Wednesdays, 5$ Burger Tuesdays and an agency-wide game of music popcorn everyday are just a few.  My insatiable appetite for food aside, d4 Creative Group has given me some unique opportunities in different aspects of advertising.  In…

When it comes to Lego vs. K’nex, I have always been a K’nex kid.  I received a huge tub for Christmas one year and loved them.  The creative freedom that came with K’nex was so much more extensive than the restriction I felt with Lego.  I also created the stereotypical…

As sad as it sounds, I have truly learned more during this summer internship than I ever have in a classroom setting.  My boss at Vintage Tub & Bath, is very good at making time to sit down with me at least twice a week and teach me something new.…

What a dream come true it’s been working at Tierney this summer. From the initial first step it was all surreal. Anxiously waiting to hear our client we all couldn’t help but wonder and chat on who it could be, and then it was revealed, Urban Outfitters. This all was…

The quarterly magazine, “Philly Review” is due…

I’m in my second month interning at Weber Shandwick in Baltimore (Advertising) and the general atmosphere is pretty light. Dress is casual/business casualish, pretty much jeans and t-shirts are fine but we usually draw the line at spaghetti straps. The office is freezing though so everyone has a sweater, blanket…

(This is a short story about some of the less-fun work interns tend to encounter.  This is an entirely dramatized and completely personal account, and is in no way meant to reflect poorly on anyone other than myself.  Enjoy.) … The days all kind of blur together anymore.  I think…

Searching and applying for Internships, as we all well know, is not an easy and exciting task. Applying and not hearing back or actually going to several interviews and finding out you didn’t get the position is exhausting, and quite frankly, a constant feeling of failure. At least, this is…
