The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students
Throughout my journey of finding, solidifying and following up with internships, InternQueen.com, whose motto is “All Work, No Pay”. has basically been my go-to guide. But if my past two internships are any representation of the real world in public relations, I have learned that interns as well as professionals…
When I hear others complaining about their internships, and all the tedious work they have to do, I know I lucked out in getting an internship at Tristate Indie. They say, if you love what you do then you’re not working, a statement that I’d say holds true to the…
Even though my internship with Kings Rule Together is coming to a close, I made a connection with the company and will be continuing my relationship with them. It’s a growing brand with a lot of potential and I want to be a part of the building process. A current…
Interning can be a nerve-racking experience. When I began to think about interning, I was slightly reluctant because I had heard so many horror stories about internships from friends and peers. I knew I wanted to work for a company that would allow me to grow my knowledge of a…
Internships are about gaining experience and making connections. Working at Wired 96.5 has been that and more. I have had an amazing opportunity to work with one of the most inspirational people I have ever met. It isn’t easy being a woman in the professional world, let alone a gay…
Back during the cold, long days of last winter, I was on a mission to acquire an internship for this semester (that is winding down, ever so quickly!) I stumbled across Skai Blue Media, a PR firm in Midtown Village, and started doing some research on the company. Before I…
I am sad to say my time here at Harmelin is coming to a close. I have really enjoyed getting to know the media buyers and planners and, of course, my fellow interns. As I am preparing to say goodbye, I have developed a short list of the top 5…
At the end of December I was hired as an account management/copywriting intern by 20nine Design Studios. This was my first shot at the ‘big time’ as the only internship I’ve had before this semester was last summer and it was working for a small legal company which I acquired because…
Seems like I’ve come a long way from when I first started my internship in December 2012 to where I am now. I began an internship where my position was Social Media Marketer. I helped with all aspects of starting the sites and making them live so once it was…
Believe me, I understand how frustrating it is giving a company 15-20 hours of your time each week and getting no monetary gain out of it. It can seem like a waste of time, and you may feel a bit taken advantage of. The important thing to remember is that…
During my time here at PDQ, I have worked along side one of the most efficient designers I have ever met. Her name is Ravi, and I never met such a hardworking, determined person in my life. She taught herself how to work the Adobe suite over the years without…
I am currently undergoing an internship at a print shop called PDQ. This internship gave me a different look at the advertising world. Throughout school I learned all about design and the Adobe suite, obviously being a creative director. However, when I began this internship I learned very valuable lessons.…
