Out of the office - PRIntern

Wednesday, December 1, 2010

You're hired...

I needed 940hrs of Work Intergrated Learning in order to graduate and become a fully-fledged PR Executive.  It sounded insane about 365 days ago when I was a second-year student who knew nothing about the workplace except what I would wear to the office.  But intelligence coupled with street-smart and my unspoken ability to sell snow to snow men (clears throat), got me a job, a place where I could realise half of  my goals for 2010. 

It might be said that I am too late to start writing about being a PR Intern in South Africa when I only have 14 days of it left but my love for writing always gets the better of me.  Yes, I said it, I have 14days left in what I don't want to call a rollercoaster because that has its ups and downs but rather a spiral (whether it goes up or down, you the reader will decide).  So I have put pen to paper, no, I mean fingers to keyboard to give an insight into mine and my fellow classmates journey, which even though most of it has ended - is just beginning.

You're hired. The words I have come to love but hate. 

Bear with me as I entertain, relate, clarify and inform you about how it feels to be fashion forward, intelligent, outgoing, outspoken, competent, egotistical AND an Intern, all of this in one person, just didn't gel.
