Wow, you have really grown since first meeting and working with you at Allotrope. It sounds like you found something that makes you happy and interests you. This internship sounds like it gave you good experience for the future. I can’t wait to see what comes your way in the coming years. Congrats!

I also love your last paragraph and the advice you give. It applies to anything in life, not just looking for an internship!

Thank you for sharing your insights on your internship. As an SEO intern myself I understand what you went through during your internship at Harmelin Media. Prior to starting my internship, I didn’t have a lot of experience in search engine optimization aside from the fact that it improves the quality and quantity of website traffic. When I started my role as an SEO intern at SEOM Interactive, I had to learn how to make content appealing to clients whether that’s creating multiple webpages, drafting case studies, editing metrics on Google Analytics 4, fixing hundreds of directories to increase web presence, updating job sites, and changing Google Business Profiles.

I’m glad you found the same values you did in Philadelphia as you did in Los Angeles, I’m curious to see how different they are in terms of your overall experience. Did living on the East Coast open you up to more opportunities or is it about the same? I know California is big on media too so I’m interested in seeing how they vary from each other.

I find it fascinating that you have a background in coding as well, I think it’s really helpful in the advertising industry when you have analytical skills to back up your research. I use HTML coding in my internship to create things like floating widgets. My experience is limited though, so if you have any tips or tricks I’d love to learn more about it.

Congratulations on moving forward with your career in SEO, I too will be doing that soon. I wish us both the best of luck as we step into the job market and utilize our skills to the best of our ability.
