Creative Intern Review

10/10 If I was looking for a placement tomorrow, a creative internship at Warner Bros would be 100% top of my list. This past year I have learned and experienced so much that I can not only implement into my last year of uni but also the next steps in my career as well.

I felt valued by my colleagues and team just by the tasks that were assigned to me. As I progressed through the internship my role became more and more essential to the business and it showed through the responses and feedback I was receiving.

Warner Bros. from day one let you know that training is available for all interns if you need it they also provide mandatory training sessions throughout the year. My line manager also was great in giving me support not just with work but also making sure I was in the best possible position to tackle that work in the first place.

I have been fortunate with my role I believe, there has been times where I have been crazy busy and times where my workload has been more relaxed. As the year has progressed my line manager has been able to manage my workload a lot more efficiently. This was initially hard to do when work was coming in from multiple divisions.

A lot of responsibility. Even as an intern I will manage budgets, develop products with licensees, design materials for upcoming DVD releases and even create my own online stores for retailers such Amazon and Argos. In addition, There's a variety of projects I have been apart of this year but you'll learn even the smallest tasks can provide a huge responsibility.

Going into this placement I had no real marketing or business experience so that side of my persona has developed massively. My creative skills with Illustrator and Photoshop etc have developed simply from the huge amount of creative hours that have come with this role. As stated previously everything I have learned and experienced here at WB will be implemented into my last year of uni and the next steps of my career.

Lively, 3rd Floor at Warner House is intern central and therefore the other floors can't really compete. Also 3rd Floor is host to multiple divisions so teams working cross-divisionally in sync is a great influential workplace to be a part of. Whats great especially about WB is everyone is approachable regardless of position so if theres someone you want to ask about something you don't know about your question will be answered.

WB has had internships for quite some time now and it really reflects in the workplace. Everyone in the building is aware that we have the year placements and in line with HR each division is well informed as to how its set up. As an intern you know what is required from you and what opportunities you have whilst at WB.

I didn't really have any personal training but in terms of resources the company fully invested. Whenever I needed additional software it was given to me and whenever I spoke out about what I would like to achieve or experience whilst at WB that request was granted. I have been very fortunate to be able to make the placement what I wanted it to be from day one.

Theres no graduate scheme here at WB however the direction the business is moving more and more opportunities will open up here in the UK. So fingers crossed!

Theres over 60 interns here at WB so there was always going to be a good social scene. Theres loads of groups, we live in London anyone obtaining a WB placement is going to have a laugh.

It's London its very expensive, your salary and maintenance loan will keep you going however I found it hard to save any money on top of that.

Amazing its London, whatever your music scene or taste is there will be a bar or club thats accustomed to that.

WB offers cooperate opportunities for you to be a part of such as volunteering, charity events etc but also sporting opportunities. I played a season at Warner FC and its one of the biggest things ill miss leaving this July.
