Overview
I work on a number of different marketing campaigns supporting with email, social and paid marketing as well as assisting with event coordination.
Skills
I have dramatically improved my use of the Microsoft suite especially Excel, as well as the Google applications which are used by the firm as a whole. As well as this, I am now proficient in the use of Salesforce, their CRM system, which at first can be very difficult to master.
Responsibilities
Yes, plenty of responsibility however, as well as guidance on many tasks. There was a good mix.
Support & Guidance
A lot of guidance was given and I always felt I could ask questions, even if I thought they were silly ones.
Culture
The culture was very friendly and the firm as a whole is very generous with a lot of unexpected benefits.
Your Impressions
I very much enjoyed it, I learnt a lot throughout my placement and have gained a huge insight into the corporate world of work. I am even looking to return.
Yes
Ensure that you do a lot of research on the firm before applying. Get to know what your role might entail and what the business looks for in individuals.
