Watch, learn and apply"

Being a Marketing major I asked to do my internship in that sector of the company.Coincidently this was the department that was having the most issues and that required the most work. Additionally, I arrived at the time of a new product launch that required extensive preparation and an excellent opportunity for me to watch, learn and apply. My academic education taught me to use my knowledge and apply my skills whenever necessary. During my internship not only did I perfect my Italian, I improved my Marketing and Communication techniques. I was asked to prepare and present power point presentations, to brainstorm ideas for advertising claims and communication letters to clients. In the end, I was able to help the marketing department think of solutions for their problems.
