Getting to know the CEO
It has been 6 days since I have started my internship. During this period, I have been assigned to different tasks such as working on the new website of the company and working on setting up a new office layout to free up unused space for the provision of a mess room. After I had finished with the office layout, my proposition has got through the CEO. Later, he came to me and asked where he will be sitting. Being a new comer, I didn’t know that he was the CEO as most of the time he was not in the office, so I replied that I still needed to sort this out. Then I knew who he was but fortunately he was in a good mood and we end up chatting for 5 minutes. Another unbelievable task in which I participated is the set up of a stand at an exposition. I never thought I would have been involved in such a task but apparently, this is also what PR consists of. I learned a lot from this experience and I hope to have such opportunities again.
