So I have one week exactly remaining in my internship here at Deveney Communication. One week left in New Orleans. One week left of what has been a great experience.
When I imagined my first internship, I figured I'd be doing a lot of note-taking, learning and "gopher" work. Ironically, as I type this, I'm about to run on my first stereotypical intern coffee run, picking up lunch for an in-office client meeting. My first such task the whole time I've been here, only in my last week of work.
I've gotten to sit in and directly participate on client calls, been given project and proposal leads, produced several pieces of original content for the firm, had my first-ever late-night office experience for a project deadline and so much more than I thought I'd be doing.
My first day of work, I was assigned the Ruth's Chris, Louisiana Office of Tourism and Starbucks accounts. Since then, I've done work on all of the following:
- Arxcel
- Audubon Insectarium
- Louisiana Office of Tourism
- LSU Health Care Services Division
- New Orleans Museum of Art
- Palmer, Reifler and Associates
- Planet Beach salons
- Ralph Brennan Restaurant Group
- Ruth's Chris
- Starbucks
- Touro Infirmary
I've also been involved in several business development proposals and presentations. It's a breadth of experience I'm very grateful to have and which will certain give my resume and portfolio a lift.
In the short time I have left, I'll try to update more about specific PR stuff I've done here, and I am going to continue this blog after returning to LSU later this month. Keep reading!
