My role within the organization is within the Communications and Marketing Department. I design things for the organization such as article layouts, logos, and merchandise mock-ups. My professor was the one who recommended this organization to me since it was asynchronous which fit into my schedule. An interview was set up by the founder of the organization and was well aware of city tech students because they regularly intern at their organization. Luckily there weren’t multiple interviews and gave me the position over the phone and locked my place in. 

During the interview I was asked why I wanted to work with the organization, what interested me about the organization, and what kind of things I do in my spare time. It was interview questions but I was still nervous overall. The founder also told me in the same call to have a cover letter ready as well as a proper headshot to put on the website.
