So, I’m sure that you’ve already read through all the blogs about interning here at this full-service digital marketing agency. If not, I hope you’re doing that now. Andy has shared his personal experience interning here at Agency Entourage, and Chloe has given us the run-down on what she has learned from her time being here. What I want to share with you guys is what to expect when you walk through those glass doors as part of our team.
Once you’ve sent in your application with a cover letter and, of course, a follow-up thank you letter after the interview, you’re on your way to starting this wonderful journey in the #AElife. Whether you’re doing this for course credit or just for the invaluable experience, Agency Entourage will give you the skills to not only understand and create engaging digital marketing content, but also to know how to act professionally in a work environment. Because let’s face it: you don’t want to walk into your future job not knowing how to even answer the phone or communicate effectively with clients and coworkers.
Hi, I’m Paulina. Here’s what you can expect from interning at Agency Entourage:
1 – Walking into the building and being greeted every day by the friendly security guard.
2 – Seeing all the Interactive Producers (IPs) hard at work at the open no-cubicle tables the moment you walk in.
3 – Maybe some funny commercial or music video will be playing from our Chromecast to the large flat-screen TV.
4 – IPs gossiping about the latest news and events going on today, so you’re all caught up.
5 – Helping the person you work under create engaging content for their many clients.
6 – Learning various social media platforms like Houzz or Hootsuite, outside of the more commonly known Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram.
7 – Maybe a day trip to the Texas State Fair or a Thanksgiving-style luncheon (where I provide the playlist via 8-tracks), and we each talk about what we’re thankful for.
8 – Mastering the skill of firing out blogs about almost anything and everything in no time.
9 – Attending a client meeting and learning the ins and outs of what they want and expect from our work.
10 – Learning how to write in the client’s voice.
11 – Dressing in a professional, yet casual way.
12 – Finally knowing where everything is downtown, including the Underground.
13 – Maybe being stopped by a passing parade on Main Street.
14 – Joining with the other interns to create your own project, such as our JFK50for50. Check out our website here.
15 – And last, but most certainly not least, knowing what it truly is like to live that awesome agency life.
Agency Entourage has given me more than a full understanding of what it’s like to work in digital marketing, and I hope that you have a similar experience, if not better!
If you think you want to experience all of these things and join the AE team as an intern, then apply today at Agency Entourage! You can send in your resume to internships@agencyentourage.com, but first, I’d recommend checking out this blog about our internships from Hayley Wood, our Internship Coordinator. Good luck!
