Tell us a little bit about your internship position:

I assisted in producing insights and recommendations on vendor proposals and provided competitor analyses to our client.

How did you land your current position?

I did some research online for internships in media and connected with the recruiter for the program. After a series of interviews I was offered a position! I found that sending thank you emails after my interviews and keeping in contact with the recruiter to be helpful as it showed my passion for the industry and the position.

What is some advice that you would give to students who are currently searching for internships/who are about to do their first internship?
