Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

The best experiences I have ever had. I'm currently studying product design and am really interested in marketing. It is an incredibly ideal internship for me as I was able to support and design many the events and activations for both brands. I loved the degree of trust and responsibility I was given, I felt like I was part of the team and not just an intern. I'm so grateful to work with such a supportive team.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

I worked directly with my manager for many upcoming launches, events and preparations. I was given a lot of responsibility since the beginning and I'm happy they trusted me to help from the start.
