2nd week at Kingsmen


2nd week in Kingsmen went by in a jiffy. I don’t know if that was because there were so much to do, or time just generally passes faster when you are not studying.

For a start, for those who attempted to guess why the humpty dumpty is the mascot of the company I am interning at I guess you should have figured out the answer? If not, it is because like the nursery rhyme goes “Humpty dumpty sat on the wall, humpty dumpty had a great fall. All the king horses, and all the KINGSMEN...” There, answer revealed.

So anyway, this post will sum up and give you readers an overview of my 2nd week here in Kingsmen Creative.

I would start from where I left off the last time – the annual Design and Builders Award contest. As mentioned in the first post, 1 of the first task assigned to me when I first came into the company was to facilitate and support the corporate communication department in the annual contest. The week started off with the preliminary judging where half the entries were slashed off. Among the ones that were not eliminated, there were little notes scribbled on by the judges where I had to relay and follow-up on with the designers of the projects.

Kingsmen had a known history to be actively involved in giving back to the society. In 2011, the company donated $200, 000 to the Singapore Association of the Visually Handicapped as part of its CSR program. This year guess who is tasked to source for the potential beneficiaries? Me. Yes, I have been tasked to research and draft out the list of not-for-profit organisations the company can consider to channel its CSR efforts towards. Also, I have been involving myself in the production of the company’s annual newsletter this year, more of that in the next post!

Till then, so long people!
