Working for Warner Bros was an exciting and incredible experience. Getting to work on some of the biggest and well-known brands such as LEGO, DC, Wizarding World and Middle Earth as well as the theatrical releases Fantastic Beasts, A Star is Born and much more. Working on large campaigns across all divisions helped to strengthen my marketing skills for the future.

2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

As part of my role, I got to work on many new projects. One main highlight was running the paid media campaigns on Amazon Marketing Services for both Physical and digital products. Being the solo drive with this project I felt I was given huge amounts of responsibility and trust which hopefully reflected the value my colleagues thought I could bring through Amazon.

3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

As part of my role, I had a line manager and individual project manager. The management team provided me with support, training, and advice on how to improve my skill set and the best ways to do the day to day jobs efficiently and effectively.

4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

Working for Warner Bros is always going to be busy. As I was part of the digital marketing team I had to support all divisions (Theatrical, Games, Home Ent, TV, Catalogue and family Entertainment). This meant that I got to work on most campaigns running in 2018/2019. It was a very busy year but brought out the best in me and pushed my limits with work/life balance along with my time management skills.

5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

During my placement, I had to complete daily/weekly tasks. Once those tasks were completed it was up to me to take initiative and request new projects such as Amazon Marketing Service and Audience building for paid media. The team was great at giving me extra work and pushing the boundaries of what an intern should be able to achieve.
