    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • I was a part of the marketing team which managed and oversaw the UEFA EURO 2020 campaign. This entailed in me being a part of the war rooms during events, as well as daily meetings with members of our transnational teams. I was also responsible for analysing data and trends. I was also given the opportunity to work with the music team and help programme music for the flagship EURO2020 playlist on the platform.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • Yes I definitely have learnt new skills prior to this role I had experience in PR, but I was a complete novice in marketing. This opportunity allowed me to develop my marketing skills and made me aware of the detail that is required to correctly execute a marketing campaign. I also developed how to work amongst a group or team of people from completely different backgrounds, interests etc. which really improved my confidence.

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • Not so much, we were given tasks that we were responsible for, but we didn’t have much freedom to try different things that we would be responsible for. Regardless it was still an overall enjoying experience and we were given the freedom to be expressive with the tasks we were given

    Culture

  • 5. What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?

    Your Impressions

  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • This was overall the best experience of my life. People from my background typically don’t get opportunities to work for a company like TikTok and it was a humbling experience. This experience allowed me to believe that I can achieve everything, and anything through hard work and determination.
