Every day, aspiring young professionals (like you!) come to Intern Queen Inc. to read important career advice, to see what lessons our Campus Ambassadors have to share, and to discover the coolest internship opportunities.
But have you ever wondered what it’s like to intern for Intern Queen. Inc, itself?
Fall 2014 interns Brooke Miller, Kelly Hayes, and Justine dela Rosa decided to share their top 4 favorite things about working for Intern Queen.
Learning how to communicate effectively.
Efficient communication is crucial to being an Intern Queen Inc. intern especially because of the job’s virtual nature. Over the course of this semester, we’ve learned what it really means to be effective communicators with people we don’t have the opportunity to see face-to-face every day.
This means being alert and attentive to all phone calls and emails and learning how to appropriately communicate with our co-workers as well as the clients we work with!
We’ve also learned the importance of following up and checking in.
Being a part of an on-campus campaign.
Working for Intern Queen Inc. taught us how companies’ college campaigns work behind the scenes!
We were able to see how executing a campaign works by being a part of the recruiting teams for some of the campaigns we’ve done over the Fall. We were able to get a hands on approach on learning what it takes to make a campaign successful.
Getting a chance to do it all!
Working for Intern Queen Inc. is an all-encompassing job and we have been given hands-on opportunities in client communications, public relations, social media marketing, content creation, and much more.
We’re lucky to have managers who are interested in knowing what specific areas we want to gain more experience in so we can learn more of what we want to do!
Being a part of the IQ Family.
This last one should be no surprise. Getting to work closely with a small group of inspiring, hard-working women is one of the best perks of being an Intern Queen intern! We are fortunate to have our thoughts and ideas valued by the rest of the team with the opportunity to implement them or build up on them.
Our IQ family members act as mentors to us and give us personal feedback that has helped us grow as young professionals over the last few months.
Working for Intern Queen Inc. has been an eye-opening and valuable experience and we’re very thankful to be a part of the IQ family!
