Hi guys! Once again my name is Angela Pavalko and this semester I had an incredible opportunity to intern with Comcast-Spectacor in the Complex Marketing department. As a complex marketing intern I was in charge of assisting the marketing staff with Wings Lacrosse, 76ers, and Flyers game day promotions. I also assisted all other Wells Fargo Center events, family shows, and concerts. I wanted to tell you all about one of my favorite experiences that I had at my internship. On March 1. 2014 I had the opportunity to work with the marketing manager of the 76ers and assist with…

It has been a long and most rewarding semester for me. I was able to travel back and fourth for an amazing internship opportunity and continue to attend Temple University as a full time student. I knew it wasn’t going to be easy, but I had to try. I worked at StyleHaul, a Youtube network which brings different talent in the vlogging world into one space where they can talk about fashion, make-up and lifestyle. I had interned for them in the fall semester in Los Angeles and learned a lot from them. I wanted to continue my venture with…

As a complex marketing intern I was in charge of assisting the marketing staff with Wings Lacrosse, 76ers, and Flyers game day promotions.

Through this internship I learned that it takes determination, long hours, and patience to work in the sports marketing and events industry.

I am a social media coordinator intern for Clarisse Inc (Promgirl.net) and I am really enjoying my experience there. I have learned a lot since I started months ago. I learned how to use Hootsuite, which is a program available online that allows people to manage all social media accounts at the same time. This program is the company’s choice for scheduling and managing all their posts on their social media outlets. I have become so familiar with this program because I use it everyday I’m in the office. Also, I have discovered a lot of different photo-editing websites where…

My name is Alana Barretta, and I was an intern at Chatterblast Media, a social media marketing company. The following is a list of tools and tricks I learned and can help everyone while at their internship. An internship is your key into the real working world in your field. Make sure you make the most of your time, where ever you are. 1. Always ASK questions. You are not sure of something? ASK. What I liked about my internship was that there was a young part-time worker that was able to relay messages from the bosses, therefor interns, especially…

I’ve always been told from time-to-time from people in the working world how important it is to love your job. Even some of my peers have high hopes to someday love their job when they get older. They don’t care where they work; they just want to love what they’re doing. I’ve also heard a lot of complaints from those who don’t like their jobs, and it sounds miserable. I’m now getting to the age where the majority of my friends have found a “grown-up” job, and are now working fulltime. After hearing some of their stories, and experiencing my…

For the Spring 2014 semester, I was offered a marketing internship at Rossi Wellness Center. Rossi Center is a medical practice that provides a variety of specializes in HIV/AIDS care, aesthetic  procedures, and opioid dependency. This experience has taught me about the marketing, advertising, and search engine optimization efforts that go into a small business. I worked under Barry Eichner, the newly hired marketing consultant with over twenty years of experience. He taught me a lot about SEO and got me interested in that field.  Barry had me writing a bunch of blogs, which I was not too fond of at…

The most recent campaign I’ve set up to run here at WXPN has been another very interesting project. This campaign was directed to increase traffic towards The Key (WXPN’s local music blog) and more specifically, the concert review section of the blog. From the start, I knew it would be intriguing as a PPC campaign because it is such a specific destination on the web. However, I was in luck since I would consider myself as part of this blog’s target market. I’m certainly a big fan of the eclectic and lively local music scene this city has to offer,…

Working at Magic Hat this past semester has been a blast but it has had its stressful moments. I’ve been working as the Philadelphia Merry Prankster for Magic Hat Brewing Company, which basically means I work in their Marketing and Sales Department. What I do is basically build a relationship between both the brand and bar owners as well as the brand and consumers. On a daily basis I visit one of the bars on my account list set up promotions and make sure they have everything they need such as branded glassware or signage. If there is one thing this…

People always told me, the purpose of an internship is the knowledge you take from that particular learning experience. I couldn’t agree more with that, except the type of knowledge I gained was something that I never expected to learn through my internship. To me, I always thought that this experience would supply me with tangible knowledge that I would take with me to apply to the real world, but I found the most important knowledge learned to be something else. Not only will I take the tangible knowledge with me as I go, but most importantly I will take…

I started at my Internship at Paula Hian Designs in January of this year. I went in a little nervous because I didn’t know a lot about fashion, but also very excited. When meeting Paula previously at the interview, she was extremely sweet and seemed like she needed a lot of help in the company, so I was ready to get to work. When arriving on the first day, myself and two other interns were instructed to completely organize an entire section of the work room. In the picture, you’ll see why I was a little nervous. To me, this…

During my time at Temple News, I have found one common feature among most to all of the people that work within the office … Stubbornness. I won’t be a hypocrite and not include myself under this category. It is a very prevalent trait with its strengths and weaknesses. One that leads to confidence, determination and passion for ones work. On the other hand it reveals ignorance, can make a person difficult to work with and create ripples in the working environment. This is a trait with dangerous implications if used in the wrong way but if properly asserted it…
