Little bit more about me - Good Working Experience


PERSONAL OBJECTIVES
To further my knowledge and interest in the field of public relations and advertising. I am willing and excited to take the opportunity to learn as much as I can where ever possible. I aim to maximise my opportunities, and the tenacity to keep on pushing the boundaries in order to accomplish both personal goals and those required by the company and its customers.

The main aim of the work experience was to learn and understand the production of the magazine and get involved and understand the roles in the features department as well as gaining more knowledge of the PA position to an Editor.

2. The Staggering Eagle Magazine (Mod)
Duties: I had the opportunity to do freelance articles for the Regimental Company Magazine. This included events and training days/ weekends.

3. Cargo Cult Communications, Soho London
Duties: I had the opportunity of taking part in all departments in the London based PR firm, from writing press releases to dressing mannequins and organizing call outs of press samples. The everyday admin duties included research, answering the phone and down town trips to store after ‘popping into Vogue! The Per una Press show was our main project and I was lucky enough to get really involved. The organizing of the Marks and Spencer Designer collection press show answered many questions regarding PR!
