Intern Update!

I apologize for the delay in my post but June has been a very busy month. I am interning, taking two classes and helping plan a wedding! I haven't had free time in a while, but here's an update to what is going on.

I am so in love with my internship. I have learned so much over the past month and can't wait to graduate so that I can use all that I've learned. I initially was brought on a Public Relations intern, now I am not only doing Public Relations but I am also help run the company. My boss has been on a business trip for two weeks and has left me in charge of running things. It was challenging at first but I have finally gotten the swing of things, now know how to deal with things immediately without waiting from an email from my boss. Overall I am so glad that I chose this company, it has really prepared me for the corporate world. I know that any company I work for will most likely have more than two employees but I think that it has given  me a good foundation.

Super Intern

                                                                          

Last week was a very fast paced week, I learned so much in the first five days.I had no idea what to expect, all my other internships have been either in a retail setting or for one specific project. My mind was racing through all of the possible duties that I may be handed. I never thought in a million years that I would actually be helping run the company. I have done everything from my very first photo shoot to setting up meetings. I feel that my boss gives me the freedom that I need to learn but enough structure so that I won't be completely lost.And whats more is that he treats me like an equal, I have not once been asked to run a personal errand for him. I have heard all the stories about how interns are usually nothing more that just errand runners, who typically don't learn anything. This isn't the case with this job, I am learning more and more each day, and am often questioned if there is anything else that I want or need to learn. Overall these first two weeks have been great. I am so glad that I finally stepped out of my comfort zone and chose a company completely different from what I have been used to. This opportunity has been so much more than just a resume booster. As always i will continue to update you and want to hear how you summer internships are going.
