The Class:
Throughout this summer career class, I was grateful to learn many things about myself and my future plans. We had a list of career readiness skill and I learned that I needed to be more comfortable efficiently communicating with my co-workers and boss. Learning how to make a google site, cover letter and linkedin account were also useful resources to help me get more prepared to join the work force. Although I want to major in biology, I realized that I probably also have to go to more school and get some medical training for the jobs I desire to have. Overall this class was a good learning experience and helped me understand that getting and keeping a job takes a lot of effort and skill.
My Internship:
I was grateful to learn a lot about the social media aspect to running a business during my internship at agingparents.com. I learned how to use mailchimp and linkedin to promote one's business and that social media plays a major role in getting one's business recognized. I am also grateful to have learned how to put together an e-mail campaign and learned that being organized saves a lot of time. My internship at agingparents.com was truly an eye-opening experience and I will continue to use the skills learned there in my daily life and my future jobs.
Daisy,
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree with you about discovering more about myself and my future plans during the class which I think was important. I learned a lot about social media as well during my internship. What is mailchimp?? Haha I'm very curious.. It seems like you had an overall good experience at your internship and class! Great work!
