In one of my past blogs, I mentioned how important internships are on a resume and how the experience benefits you in the long run. I still believe that everyone should get an internship before they step out into the real world or careers, especially in the business arena or Marketing, PR, and Advertising. The career I have picked is so competitive as it is that I need all the experience I can get before I graduate to join the real world right out of college. Well, I'm on my way with my first public relations and advertising internship! I've worked for a company as an intern for the past two summers as a marketing intern, but my new internship will give me even more experience in the areas I don't have as much experience in.
The internship I got for this summer is with LocumTenens.com. I'm really excited about it! It's with a bigger company than I've worked with before. I also get to pioneer a lot of their new ventures over the summer. They are mostly an Internet marketing company, hence the name of the company, so I will be working with their new advertising campaign online. I will also be able to work with their public relations director by helping her write press releases and plan events that LocumTenens.com will be attending. I think I'm most looking forward to copy writing. I'll be able to gain experience in a part of advertising that I have never done outside of school.
I'm just really looking forward from learning more from a bigger company that has an entire department dedicated to marketing! I start May 11, so I'll update after I start! : )
