I liked that the interns had to Pitch an campaign for a real product. It gave us real world experience and allowed us to network with influencetial leadership.
What I wish was different
My mentor was more clear about my responsibilities. By the end of the problem, I used him for resources and perceptive. I wasn’t working as closely with him and his team as I would have liked too.
Advice
Use your downtime wisely! Networking is so important especially in the advertising industry. A lot of people know each other.

Account Management Intern
June - August 2018 • New York City, NY
What I liked
Many workshops that made sure the students were educated in all aspects in the field of advertising; the intern project where we created a pitch from start to finish was helpful too
What I wish was different
I wish I had been closer, the city was too far. I also wish it was longer, after 9 weeks I felt like I was just starting to get used to it
Advice
You get educated on the role of every department in presentations and workshops, so if you aren't sure what exactly you want to do yet, this is an excellent opportunity to help you decide
