Comments on: Why I Recommend Asking For What You Want https://templeadlib.com/why-i-recommend-asking-for-what-you-want/ The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students Sun, 22 Jun 2025 20:48:52 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.1 By: tum91586 https://templeadlib.com/why-i-recommend-asking-for-what-you-want/comment-page-1/#comment-155195 Sun, 22 Jun 2025 20:48:52 +0000 https://templeadlib.com/?p=26124#comment-155195 At my internship we learn a lot about Tourism, Hospitality, and Management due to it being one our program that we offer for high school students so reading about your experience in the hospitality world really makes me think of how huge it is! I take walking tours with them sometimes around the city and it makes me really think about how people’s daily jobs are reliant on tourism and it’s wonderful that they can go into this field!

Like what you said in your title, I agree with always asking about what you want and what you need is so important to a field like hospitality and even advertising. It never hurts to ask! However, how do you navigate through your internship with the communications team being a little small? I can relate to that because our external affairs team is also small, but we’re mighty!

When you’re the first to do something, it’s something that is cool to look back on. I resonate with the mantra and mindset of “creating a seat for yourself” and chasing down what you want because I feel like that’s a lot of how my experience in life has been. Asking for what you want and taking a shot is always worth it. The worst someone can do is say no and you move onto the next opportunity!
It’s very cool that you were able to create flyers and it is really great that you were able to create a brand guideline for different locations. I know that you don’t have a creative concentration, but brand guidelines are so crucial to brands. Where I’m interning at, one specific client my agency has doesn’t have a brand guideline, which isn’t the worst thing in the world, but it’s interesting that we don’t have guidelines set in stone to follow when it comes to that brand. One thing I wish you expanded on was what else the internship consisted of outside of the creative aspect. When reading, it seemed like the creative part of the internship was only part of what you had done because that section starts with “at first”. This leads me to my question: What else did your internship consist of? Did you have tasks that related to your concentration?
