Client Tech Service Delivery Intern

June 2021 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I liked the team I worked with in particular my supervisor and mentor. They made me feel welcomed and acclimated as best as they could since it was a virtual internship. I felt like I had a place on the team and my feedback was valued and encouraged in many areas.

What I wish was different

I wish it was in person so I could get more hands-on experience .

Advice

One piece of advice is to communicate often with your team and make an effort to make a presence in meetings or by simply asking questions. This is especially important in a virtual environment because you don't have the face-to-face interactions and impressions to make with others.

Content Strategy Intern

June - August 2022 • Miami, FL

What I liked

I liked the independence my manager gave me in doing my project for the summer. Also, despite being mostly remote, the company did a good job of offering sessions that all interns could attend and connect to (wellness, speaker sessions, educational sessions). Additionally, everyone I reached out to was friendly and were willing to engage in coffee chats, where I got to make many connections with professionals from different departments.

What I wish was different

The first few weeks were a bit slow because there was a lot of onboarding and learning about my team. I wish this process could somehow have been sped up. However, I will say a lot of this down time gave me opportunities to coffee chat with many people, so it depends how you look at this.

Advice

I would encourage everyone to network as much as possible with people! Additionally, attend as many sessions as you can to learn more about different departments and connect with people that way.

What I wish was different

Management felt unapproachable and at times was very stressful

Do not intern here if you are easily flustered. It’s fast paced, hectic, and can be stressful.

Nickelodeon Corporate Communications Intern

June - December 2019 • New York City, NY

What I liked

The Viacom Campus to Carrer takes so much time to make every intern feel at home at Viacom. There were countless intern seminars such an Intern to Full-Time pannel, Intern Viacommunity Day to volunteer, and special screenings for their large portfolio of movies and television shows. I was given a great deal of responsibility on my team and was always learning new things. I felt as though my presence was valued as a member of the communications team.

What I wish was different

Honestly, I would not have changed anything. I really enjoyed every part of my summer internship which then lead me to stay throughout the fall semester. I will greatly miss my department and the work that I was doing next semester.

Advice

Take all the opportunities that you can with the Campus to Carrer team and all intern experiences. Everyone at the company is so invested in the interns and are happy to do informational interviews about different departments to not only grow your network but also to see what other opportunities you could be interested in for the future. Always put in 100% of your effort because your supervisors will notice and you will then get the most out of the experience.

International Distribution Platform Marketing Intern

June - August 2018 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I liked the company culture in getting to meet a variety of different departments. The Campus to Careers team does a wonderful job in introducing students to new departments.

What I wish was different

I wish I had a bit more to do - my supervisor travelled a lot during my time and there were times I could not find anything to do. I was able to read a lot of the records Viacom had to offer but I wanted to show my skills more.

Advice

Ask people you are introduced to if you can help them in any way or have an informational interview. Both will put a positive view of you in their heads.
