When I began at Law First Finance I had no prior sales experience. My sales director, Alex Kalives, has been of great assistance to me throughout the entire process. When they brought me on, Alex wanted me to get familiar with what to look for in a lead. So instead of throwing me right into pitching, he had me generate leads for the more experienced salespeople. He then would have me shadow his pitches to clients. From shadowing I was able to pick up on a lot of the skills required to attain a contract. Once I felt up to…

Hi, everyone! My name is Deraj Pugh and I am a senior Advertising student with a concentration in Account Management. I’m currently an Influencer Marketing intern at HSN.  I’m sure we’ve all heard the phrase “It’s not what you know, but who you know.” And it’s partly true. Now, of course, when it comes to internships and jobs, knowledge and skills matter. But many times opportunities can be more abundant if you network and build relationships. With all of my internships, knowing someone somehow played a part in me getting hired. I’ll start with my very first one which was…

I have really enjoyed my internship this semester with HappyNeuron Pro as their marketing intern. I have learned a lot about myself, and valuable information and skills that will help me in the future. During my time with HNP, I have become well versed in Photoshop. It has been the main tool I use during my Internship, since I am in charge of creating all of the blog and Pinterest graphics used by the company. I also learned InDesign to create a mini packet worksheet using the application. Before my internship, I knew little to nothing about Photoshop, and now…

In mid-August of 2021 I received a call from Tim Harner, President of Law First Finance. Tim wanted to discuss the possibility of me joining the Law First Finance team at their office in King of Prussia (only 20 minutes from where I live). I jumped at the opportunity and hoped to make a great first impression. I interviewed at their office in late August and we could all tell it would be a great match. I had the work ethic, personality, and desire to learn that they wanted in there office. Though I was inexperienced, they were happy to…

Hello! My name is Ashly Kang and I am a senior advertising student here at Temple University with concentrations in Art Direction and Brand Strategy & Research. I am currently a Marketing Assistant at REALEMN Productions.  Although the majority of my experience at REALEMN hasn’t been content creation-based, I have learned a great amount about how the varying departments work together to build a strong campaign and PR presence. It has been vital for me to work in a real world setting, wherein I had to acclimate myself with the inner workings of a team and the various positions I…

Hello! My name is Bela, and I am a senior advertising major with a copywriting concentration. This semester, I interned remotely with Any Age Activewear, a small e-commerce brand that sells sportswear such as sports bras and leggings to women over 40. It has been a wonderful opportunity for me that seemed to just fall into my lap when I wasn’t even looking. Thanks to COVID and my decision to transfer to Temple as a junior, this is my first and last year on campus. I didn’t have any internships or jobs lined up for me when I moved here…

Didn't we all think jobs would go back to in-person by now?

Stay curious and allow your own passions to drive your days.

The opportunity to work with a large and varied amount of products has strongly assisted my abilities in branding. 

I’ve met so many great people and have been able to sharpen my skills when it comes to interpersonal communication, relationship management, and general sales experience.
