I spent a majority of my winter break applying for internships in Kansas City and St. Louis because I was determined to not go back to my high school job (& I wanted real-life experience in my career field).
I found out in April that I'd be working with Spectrum (Charter) as an Internal Communications Intern. Over the course of the past three weeks I've absolutely loved it there. I have already gotten one article published and I've been able to edit/revise a lot other content, too. It's great to work in an environment that's so different from my past experiences. Through Drury I've done a lot of external PR and worked with small nonprofits, now I'm doing internal PR and working with a Fortune 100 company.
My first day in the office |
This past Thursday, though, my boss approached me and asked if I wanted to go to the Denver office this week with another member of the Internal Communications team. Of course I said yes! I have always wanted to go to Colorado, and although it will be for a work conference, at least I get to travel this summer!
Spectrum has four major corporate offices: Charlotte, Denver, St. Louis, and Stamford. Each office has a different corporate focus and I'm super excited to meet the people working in Denver. My internship has been great so far and I know that getting to network with even more people will be beneficial.
I'm so excited to see how I grow professionally over the next 7 weeks.
Until next time,
Taylor xx
PS: I should be updating my blog in the coming weeks so be prepared for that change!!
