So I’ve started interning at a well known magazine firm. It’s pretty alright, with its particularly flexible hours and a rather accommodating boss. This really works because summer school’s looming over my head like a halo on a cherub. 7 days from now. Ugh.
Aside from that, contrary to popular belief, interns don’t make coffee.
They buy it, but rarely so.
Being a Sales & Marketing Intern is pretty much doubling up in both hard-selling and aiding in the ways of “selling thyself” One day saw me thrilling through many fine dining outlets in Orchard retrieving some marketing materials we loaned out. Spread out from the regions of Tanglin to the pinnacles of Mt Sophia. Needless to say, the sun was blazing hot but there was still rain in my outfit.
Overall, I can’t complain much really. I am thoroughly blessed to have the opportunity to work at a magazine company (though not in the editorials team… for now) whilst doing summer school. So this is definitely a colon capital d moment for me.
So my vision of doing 3 internships during my 3 year program is somewhat materializing. Marketing & Sales? Check. Now 2 more to go: P.R and Editorial.
this sounds like a pretty good gig zhi. wish I could have had some inroads dammit. haha
inroads? excuse me?
