Searching stage for an Internship

Digital Media Track – Academies

Over the course of the pandemic, I realized I wanted to get into digital marketing. I have spent quite some time in retail because that’s what pays my rent and allows me to survive. I finally Decided over the fall that I want to re-attend New York City College of Technology. Applied to many internships while taking my fall 2021 semester kept getting denied this really sucked for me.  I changed my internship-seeking option and start asking word of mouth; I knew I loved creating content and pinching ideas. This spring I found someone who was willing to give me creative freedom to help bring her ideas and my creative interest in social media to life.

I used Indeed, LinkedIn and then towards the start of the semester in beginning of the semester I started using  Parker Dewey as my to-go platform for job searching. I compiled a list at the beginning of each week of 10-15 places I was interested in working at and I applied to them throughout the week. I have had a few places interview me or ask for a skill Assessment.
