I started my search for internships last year on LinkedIn and was overwhelmed by the process of finding a suitable option. There were thousands of internships available, but I wanted to ensure that the one I chose resonated with me, my skills, and my ambitions. I was lucky enough to find just that.

My name is Natalie, I am senior advertising major at Temple University. For as long as I can remember, I have even very interested in marketing and sales.

Spring Semester, I worked at Moonstone Arts Center as a graphic design intern. My role primarily consisted of designing book covers for different anthologies and individual poets based on client specifications.

I am Erin Slater, a senior advertising major concentrating in brand strategy & research and media planning.

This semester I have been interning with Envision LLC under David Aaron, co-founder and creative director, as a social media management and creative intern. Through Envision, I have been able to run social media accounts for different clients, film amazing events, learn the ins and outs of a creative base, and watch ideas become reality through my internship. I was also able to meet some incredible and truly inspiring people. I could walk through every single person at the company, but I will stick with three that taught me the most just by being themselves.  David is one of the co-founders…

It's easy to create something new using different elements, but having to create with recycled elements takes skill.

This Semester, I am interning at THIS IS IT NETWORK with Cheldin Rumer as an Editorial Intern.

Instead of the first-day excitement of a new school year, you wake up to your heart beating a little faster than usual. You took all the same steps as you did when you were a freshman in high school: picking out your outfit and packing your lunch the night before, waking up extra early to get ready, and even cooking a special breakfast. But, this time around, your 7:00 am smile looks more like a quivering lip, sweaty hands, and short-piercing breaths. You can’t shake the constant feeling of unease or dread, with the sense that something bad is about…

I am working for Prossimo LLC as an intern this school semester.

For my internship at Appian Entertainment, I was responsible in creating social media content for the company’s social media, along with its clients Teresa Giudice and Dorinda Medley from Bravo TV’s Real Housewives. The content is focused on appearances and events for the clients to promote both the company and client with the goal of the talent soliciting future offers for appearing at venues. While there were some “in-office” required days, most of my work was completed remotely. I had a flexible work schedule for the most part that didn’t have set clock-in and clock-out hours, and I just had…

Working with THIS IS IT NETWORK™ has taught me how to network professionally with an array of different people. It really got me out of my comfort zone and I found myself talking to founders of huge companies. Something I learned during my time with THIS IS IT NETWORK™ is that it is important to put yourself in the right room with the right people because those are the people who are willing to help you. It is also extremely important to never say no, when you get invited to something, you NEED to go, you never know who or…

I currently work as a fashion marketing intern at Printfresh, a sustainable luxury sleepwear brand in Philadelphia.

For the semester I interned at Vizion Group PR, which is a public relations firm that handles all of the media and publicity aspects of the National Dog Show and the APGA Golf Tour.  Even though I’m not in the field of public relations, I was still able to create a great experience out of my internship. Through this company, I’ve learned the many different ways in which these types of events are publicized to people of interest.  I’ve curated blog posts, press releases, email campaigns, handled ticketing sales reports, and much more, which definitely helped me gain knowledge of…
