Parting Words From Our Favorite Intern
Over the past couple of months, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Vert as their New Media Intern. To say the least, this opportunity has given me great knowledge of the business and was definitely a fun experience. And to think, this adventure began with a single tweet. What better way to get acquainted with an emerging media agency than on Twitter, right?
My experience with Vert has provided me with real, interactive experience that not all interns have the luxury of receiving. This was not your normal “coffee making, filing” internship…this company provides hands-on experience with the clients and really throws you into the mix of daily company activities. The Vert team (Kevin, Matt and Michael) were always open to help in any way possible and wanted to make sure that I was getting the most I could out of the internship. Their dynamic as a team is amazing and makes for a great work environment that is constantly fueled by their creative juices.
The majority of the work I did revolved around research. Who knew this would be something that I actually enjoyed doing. Vert taught me about new tools to use in order to delve into social media and see what our target markets are interested in and looking for. This, in turn, showed me how to relate to the users and how to communicate the relevance of the results to the client. Not only did this teach me the importance of research in everything you do, but it also renewed my love of social media. Seeing the back end of all of the different online campaigns communicated, really shows you how different all online media is and how many opportunities are opened because of it.
All in all, working with the Vert team has taught me many things and my experiences here will greatly help as I advance in my career endeavors. This team is creative, innovative and hard-working to the max and has such a bright future ahead of them. Their passion and excitement for the field is truly contagious and I couldn’t imagine taking this journey with anyone else. Thanks again, Vert. You guys rock!
