This fall I decided to accept a Visual Design internship with Anthropologie. As many creative women with a taste for fashion know, their company’s aesthetic is one that blows other retail stores out of the water and for this, I feel so lucky to get to intern at a store I love!  The people I work with make this place feel like home. The Rittenhouse Square store  in center city team has such a positive energy and I love feeding off the creativity of those I am working with. These ladies do not stop moving… and I gladly dance along! I…

Hey, my name is Julie Kovaleski and I am currently a senior at Temple and a social media intern at Chatterblast Media. ChatterBlast is located on 13th and Samson in the heart of Center City Philadelphia. I have been working with this small online strategy and social media marketing company to help maintain their clients social media presence. It might sounds like a dream job if you love Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Pinterest, Instagram, Google+, WordPress, or any other social media program. However, I have learned a tremendous amount of the more technical side of social media. Many of us use social…

I am currently an intern at Soko Inc., a marketing and events firm, in the heart of South Street shopping. Who knew that my first experience at an internship would entail me babysitting kid models, sounds like I didn’t learn anything from this, but trust me I did! This was my first event that I ever worked with my internship and I was determined to step up to the plate and show what I am capable of. This event was hosted by Marlton Square Shopping Center and was held in the shopping center parking lot. Various stores participated including; Gap, Victoria’s Secret,…

Since the beginning of this semester I have been interning at North Bowl Lounge N’ Lanes, which is located at 909 N. 2nd Street (Northern Liberties). North Bowl is a bowling alley that radiates friendliness and presents an atmosphere that compliments a good time. One of my supervisors, Mandi Bompensa, is a graphic designer and marketer for North Bowl who was a recent addition to the business. My major is advertising, copywriting track, and at North Bowl I have dabbled in everything from street-level marketing to social media marketing. On the first friday of every month North Bowl exhibits art…

As my first internship comes to an end at Fame House LLC, I can say in very strong confidence that my experience has been nothing but inspiring. As a very small company, Fame House holds their own with larger companies because of their dedication and love for what they do. One specific thing that always stood out to me through this experience is how doing little things well is a step towards doing big things better. In a start-up company, this saying is something that always must constantly be in mind. Everything that is being done is for the big picture. Though some…

I am currently an intern at Soko Inc., a marketing and events firm, in the heart of South Street shopping. When I first applied to this internship, I had no idea how small the company was or who was the CEO. I know that information is the first thing you should find out, but I was so concentrated on finding an internship that I applied to everywhere that I could. After two weeks of putting in my application, I received a call from Soko Inc. asking me to come in for an interview and the person gave me the email of the…

I can’t believe my time with Anthropologie as a Visual Design intern has come to an end! These past 3 months have been nothing short of magical. Unlike my previous internship at a small branding agency, Anthropolgie has offered me many new and original experiences that I can’t imagine learning anywhere else. As an art direction major, most of my education has been focused upon what to expect in an agency setting. I decided to take this internship because it was exactly opposite of that! In this position, it was my responsibility to design, formulate and craft all of Anthropologie’s Rittenhouse Square…
