Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
On a day-to-day I support in the campaign activation process for the phsyical and the digital release (PVOD, EST & VOD) of films after the theatrical window across Europe, Middle East & Africa.
This involves working alongside our media agencies and retailers to create and deliver assets to activate across multiple online platforms.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
During the first few months, the responsibility I was given was quite limited as I was still in training and was learning all the different processes and becoming accustomed to all the platforms and systems.
Further along on my internship I was given much more responsibility and was able to manage my own marketing campaigns with my managers support.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
I felt supported by my manager and my team throughout my whole placement. When I first started everyone made sure I knew how the team structure worked and everyone's role in the team. They gave me a very straightforward handover and made sure everything was clear and understood what my role entailed. They also made themselves evaluable to answer any questions I had.

Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
The company culture and atmosphere was super welcoming right from the start. Everyone at the company is super friendly and open and made me feel comfortable and safe as a new member.
The early careers team organized many events to help all the interns get to know each other and network to make sure we all settled in.
