My internship is unfortunately
now over. I have to say that I felt that it was much more than just an
internship! In fact, I was not just an intern, I was actually part of the team
and this was amazing.
To be able to put into
practice 3 years of study in 20 days was a real challenge. It is quite
impressive how similar but different real life is from studies. As I mentioned
in my previous posts, our assignments taught us how to be creative, to invent
new tactics to reach different kind of objectives, but making the idea happen
is something else!
Indeed, I always thought
that writing a PR plan was not that difficult but I never really
My internship made me realize how much I love this job and how fascinating it can be. I remember at
the start of the PR Consultancy unit, my lecturer asked me if I would prefer to
be in a consultancy or in a communication department of a company. At that time
I said ‘in a communication department as it will be easier as I will not have
the stress of looking for clients’. I
now realize how wrong I was. I will definitely work for a consultancy as
according to me; a PR career is about meeting new people and creating new ideas.
Working for a company will not allow you to do so as much, but working for a
consultancy, will allow you to meet different clients with different objectives
and views and for me THAT is PR!
During these three years,
I guess like most of you, I did have some doubts about me working in PR. But
today I am sure that this is what I want to do, this is where I belong.
For the rest of you
starting, or still doing your internships, I wish you all the best and I hope
that you will enjoy as much as I did.
