Social Media Intern - Marketing

May - August 2019 • Sturtevant, WI

What I liked

I met all kinds of high-end officials, including one representative of JennAir that works closely with Leonardo DiCaprio. He even got to host a show at Dicaprio's house! I was able to make a lot of connections and work on my professional communication skills. Any questions I had they helped me with, and not only that but they encouraged them. I was treated as an equal, not an intern.

What I wish was different

Some higher up's organization skills lacked, making for some last-minute runarounds to finish projects.

Advice

Be yourself, if you try to be anyone else it won't work. People gravitate to those who are real, rather than those who aren't. I worked with some people who tried to be what they weren't and noticed that it was not working out for them. You may think people don't see it, but they feel the energy. Ask questions. There's always this stigma that people feel like if they ask too. many questions they're annoying or others will think they don't know what they're doing, but that's not true. People see asking questions that you're serious and you want to do a good job, and that's all they ask of you.
