During my internship At Phillybass’d I met someone who inspired me to work hard and do whatever I needed in order to reach my goals, no matter what obstacles I may face. The Social Media Coordinator for my internship has a similar upbringing that I have had. We both come from poverty- stricken inner cities where most people depend on welfare to survive. As we began to work together to come up with ideas for the internship we learned that our backgrounds are similar and that we both want to make a difference in our lives so that we can…

Hello again! As I mentioned before, my name is Chelsea Shover and I am interning for a company called “Diet-to-Go in Lorton, Virginia.

I’ve been working at Fame House LLC for the past couple months and am completely in love with the work that I am doing. Fame House is a digital marketing agency for musicians, records labels, and festival. They cover a range of offered services between digital marketing, branding, strategy, and more. While Fame House is still considered a startup agency and only has around 20 employees total they are considered one of the best music digital marketing agencies on the east coast. I couldn’t imagine a better place to strength my skills in digital marketing. The environment in the office…

Well, my Philly Bass’d Entertainment internship has come to an end having completed the required 150 hours (wow, it goes fast!) Being my first internship, I am so happy with the experience and working with smart and talented interns and managers.  I designed more projects than I ever thought I would and now am ready to look for new opportunities in the creative field of advertising. I will be graduating in January and I can’t wait! Last days are always emotionally all over the place for me. I am happy that it’s over and feel good about what I’ve contributed, but sad to say goodbye to the people I have…

My name is Steve Brydzinski, and I’m interning at Exit Philadelphia – a skateboarding and apparel retail store in the heart of the Northern Liberties.  Jeremy Wieland, the owner & operator, is a well known skateboarder from here, Philadelphia, and has made many great friends and acquaintances with important and famous people in the skateboarding industry.  My time as an intern so far, has given me a few fortunate encounters where I was able to meet and hangout with some of the biggest names in skateboarding. I was fortunate enough to meet Mark Gonzales, Chris Cole, Tom Asta, Ishod Wair,…

After a semester of interning at B101, the end is here. It seems appropriate to end at B101 during the Christmas Season. Though, I will miss the people I have met through this internship, I think what I realized from this experience the most is what I don’t want to do, which I find to be equally as important as doing things you enjoy. To be quite honest, I didn’t really know what I wanted to do after school. (Terrible, I know) I figured I could adapt to anything really. However, from my experience at B101, I now understand that…

With the semester coming to an end it is time for me to part from my internship :(. My time at ADVENT was awesome! I loved working with all of the other students and working with Joe. I’ve learned a lot about the industry and I look forward to doing more work in the entertainment and event planning field. My internship has taught me many things that I wouldn’t have learned in the classroom. The  reoccurring  theme of my classes this semester and my internship was the importance of networking. I’ve realized that it is extremely important to network and…

‘ My name is Cree Franklin, I am a senior Advertising major here at Temple. I am currently interning with a small company called Advent. It is located in the Roxborough section of the city. Working with Advent has been a pleasure. It is a fairly new company, they have only been open for about a year and a half now. Joining the Advent team has taught me a lot about the advertising business and starting a new company. Joe (the owner) has made the experience very interesting and keeps all of the interns in the loop of everything that…

Can it be? Is this semester really over? I’m Rachael Silverstein, but more importantly—I’m totally flabbergasted that my time as a copywriting intern at Red Tettemer O’Connell + Partners is already coming to an end. Actually, my quickly approaching last day was supposed to be on Friday, December 13th, but that just seemed like too ominous a way to leave such a wonderful experience. So my wish has been granted to keep going strong until the rest of the office breaks for the holidays on the 23rd. This way, I’ll be able to drown my sorrows in Christmas cookies. Looking…

Hi again! My name is Jean Alban, I am interning at College Glasses in South Philly & I am blogging once again to SMC students, this time in regards to unpaid internships. I encourage each and every one of you who are searching for internship opportunities to apply to all of them, paid and unpaid. If you happen to snag that unusual paid internship that’s great, but that does not mean that an unpaid internship can’t turn into one! Unless you are graduated or have tons of experience under your belt, I don’t think an unpaid internship is for  you, but if…
