Journal Entry #5

Last class I took down some information regarding possible Internships.  I was still waiting for Zola to contact me until I received an email on Thursday from the creative director of the Lip bar. I had applied for the Lip bar since September 20^th.  As you can recall they emailed me back but told me they had to cancel the interview because they were going out of state. I thought they were never going to get back to me until I received the email. The Lip bar contacted me on October fourth, which was a Thursday. Rosco, which is the creative director, asked me if I was going to be available for an interview for Friday, which was the following day. I had work but accepted the date. I went to the interview, which was scheduled for twelve o clock. It was held at the rooftop of the establishment. I was extremely nervous especially since both the creative director and Melissa, who is the founder of the company, interviewed me. I showed them my portfolio during the process and they were very impressed. After a few questions and small talk I was hired on the spot. So in the middle of the semester I was blessed to find a internship! The job tasks are the same as what was posted on the listing, which was updating social media pages, assisting on photoshoots, and dealing with customer purchases. I am also going to be designing graphics, formulating marketing strategies, and assisting them with their events. I am so excited for this especially since this is true to my interest. I cannot wait to start!
