Marketing Intern

May - August 2022 • Chatham, MA

What I liked

Lori Designs was a wonderful experience. The people I worked with, Kristin and Lori, were always available to help me with my questions. They always made sure to take my input into consideration, and I felt like part of the team. I appreciated the balance they struck between allowing me to do work on my own and also being very communicative on areas that they needed me to help them with more directly.

What I wish was different

Not a thing.

Advice

Make sure you are driven to help this business. There can be alot of things to tackle, or sometimes there are slow days for interns. You must always be willing to speak up and ask for ways to help, or be willing to search for ways to help on your own time.
