Digital Sales Analyst Intern Review

Reporting on financial performance of a segment of the Creative Cloud business, using various forms of data. Analyzing this information to make inform business decisions. Working with key stakeholders from various departments (Marketing, Testing and Optimisation, Merchandising) to drive business performance forward.

Yes, after a period of settling in, I felt for the majority of my placement my responsibilities did not differ hugely to those on my team. I was given a lot of responsibility, and was trusted to look after a big portion of the online business (with the support of my manager).

- Data Analysis and Financial Forecasting- being able to spot trends, and understand how this impacts the bigger picture
- Presentation- both creating and presenting to all audiences
- Microsoft Excel
- Stakeholder Managment
- Project Management

My manager was incredible at supporting me throughout my placement, and I never felt like I couldn't ask for help.
However, it is a very fast-paced business, and sometimes you feel reluctant to ask colleagues for help, as it may feel as if that's less important than the tasks they are working on.

From my experience, it does really vary depending on team.
However, the atmosphere of my team was amazing. Everyone is lovely, and supportive, and you genuinely feel like people care about you. Most teams hire people into their team who they believe will be a good fit for the atmosphere.
The overall culture is great, and everyone works to incorporate the ethos where possible. They are great for inclusivity too.

I loved my placement and am very sad it's almost over. Although at times it was challenging, I could never have anticipated how much I'd learn over the year. I feel like my personal and professional skills have developed massively, and I feel really well-equipped to go into the working world once I graduate. I've rarely had days that I haven't enjoyed!
