The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students
This semester I spent my time interning for a nonprofit organization completely dedicated to finding a cure for Type II Diabetes, a disease that plagues millions and millions of Americans. Each year more and more people are being diagnosed for a disease that can be avoided (this is referring to…
Today marks my last day interning at Evoke Health. I can’t believe an entire semester has come and gone. It is crazy to think that just four short months ago, I had absolutely no idea as to what pharmaceutical advertising was all about. Although I am still trying to figure…
Well, it’s been a great experience working at Marshall Dennehey this past semester. I’ve gotten to be involved with many projects that had visible effects on how the business runs, which is always gratifying. I even got to use some of my coworkers in a research project I was conducting…
LevLane is no “boutique” ad agency. However, it is also by no means huge. With about 60 employees, they fall squarely in the middle. At a larger agency, it’s easy to be concerned that you’ll be lost in the shuffle, or that the most work you’ll be doing is remembering…
I was very fortunate to land an internship at the law firm Marshall, Dennehey, Warner, Coleman, & Goggin (Marshall Dennehey for short). However, I was a little uneasy about being an advertising major working for attorneys, as I’m sure we all know how those ads usually turn out. I appreciate the…
I hope you all got that Spongebob reference, except I actually learned a lot working at the Independence Seaport Museum as a Marketing and PR intern. The experience gave me a chance to learn how to do tasks that I wouldn’t learn inside a classroom. I got to go to…
Finally, it is coming down to an end. Not only is my time at Harmelin Media winding down, but my time as an undergrad at Temple as well. I feel very confident that Harmelin and Temple have put me in a great position to succeed in the future. Although I…
Being my first internship in the advertising world, there were some basic things that I had figured I would learn at LevLane. I knew going into this internship that I would probably see a whole new side of advertising that learning in the classroom just couldn’t possibly show; I was…
I came into college with the belief that I was absolutely certain advertising was the career I wanted to pursue. As my college career continued, I found myself enjoying my advertising classes and being even more certain that I had found the right major for me. Because I wanted to be…
When I tell people I am a strategy intern I get a lot of confused responses. “Strategy” is a buzzword in the communications industry that can mean many different things. Not many people understand how vital good strategic planning is to creating good advertising. Because of this confusion I thought…
I’ve spent much of my free time at college agonizing over The Big Decision—or more specifically, what I want to do for the rest of my life. They tell you time and time again that that’s what college is all about, so the longer I spent at Temple without making…
In the beginning of January I had the opportunity to start an advertising/social media internship with a small jewelry company named Wild Lilies Jewelry (WLJ). This was not an agency nor a large company for that matter, but the learning experience was greater than anything for which I could have…
