Public Relations Intern

June - August 2018 • Chicago, IL

What I liked

I loved getting to know all the wonderful people in my department, as well as my awesome fellow interns. The projects I worked on gave me new opportunities and insights as to what industry I'd hope to work at in the future. It was really exciting to experience the city, as well. Most importantly, I love music and getting to combine one of my passions with an industry I'm interested in working in gave me the best of both worlds!

What I wish was different

I wish I could have stayed there longer!

Advice

Originally, I did not believe I would get an offer to intern, so I did not apply to this internship until school had been let out. Don't be afraid to take a chance and try for something, even if you don't think you'll get it!
