How I Managed The Busiest Semester Of My College Career
My name is Jess Mihalczo and I am a Junior studying Advertising with a Media Planning concentration at Temple University. After two and a half years of college, I thought that I had conquered time management, but this semester presented me with an entirely new set of challenges. Between balancing school and extracurricular responsibilities all while holding down a challenging internship, I felt at times like I was living a double-life. Switching on an off between work-mode and school-mode was no easy task and I often felt like my mind was fragmented. At work, I felt challenged by only…
I Interned at Nine Dots, but I’d Rather Title This Post “Four Lines”.
Hey, what’s crackin’? My name is Alex Bujak, but you can call me tonight 😉 Now that I have your attention, I would like to tell you about how cool my internship was. I interned at Nine Dots, but you probably already know that. ND is a media agency that specializes in visual storytelling, social media, and content creation. As a copywriter who also wants to be an art director, this internship was a perfect fit for my indecisiveness. I had the best of both worlds. On my first day, I had no idea what to expect. I assumed it…

From SoulCycle to Gloss PR.
Hello, my name is Regan Plaza. I am a senior advertising student with a concentration in Account Management and a Public Relations minor. Never haveI ever thought the internship that I would grow to love with riding a bike next to me at SoulCycle this entire time. The second semester of my senior year was just around the corner when I realized I have not fulfilled my internship credit yet. I was at my part-time job, SoulCycle, talking to one of my co-workers about this issue and one of our frequent riders, Ilana, overheard us and said “Regan, why don’t…

Reverent
My semester was spent doing branding work for a family friend out in California. Since this was a start up company, I had little to go off of, only my conversations with my coworkers. I was fortunate enough to have previously worked with my supervisor this past summer at a salon. Growing up in the hair industry (my mother and myself have worked in this industry for a long time), I thought it was fun to use my knowledge in a new way, with using my hand at branding. One thing this internship really opened my eyes to is the…
