Week 2

On Monday the whole marketing department was invited to a breakfast.  At the breakfast we spoke about our weekends and any announcements that had to be made.  At the end of the breakfast, one of my co-workers introduced all the interns in the marketing department.  This made me feel so comfortable and actually apart of the team, for it shows that everyone really does care that we are here for the summer as well as they do want to get to know us.  I also found sweedish fish on my desk with a note that read "keep up with the good work-the marketing team".  When I saw the post-it note I couldn't help but smile!  Throughout my second week, I have definitely begun to meet people that I admire and who are already serving as mentors in my life.  I admire that they are all hard-working, smart, and there for advice, help, or even just as a friend.  This week I definitely felt important in the office, for I was given projects and tasks to do that kept me busy and learning.   I am really excited to start my third week at work because another intern will be joining our team and working by my side.  I am excited to get to know he or she.  I have also really enjoyed the fact that a lot of the interns are from all around the world and of different ages; I am meeting new people everyday.

  1. Great post! I think that a breakfast like that to introduce everyone to the team, and to feel more at home is extremely important to company culture and a productive workplace. Also the fact that the team provides you with notes and compliments on your work shows that the team values you and will only make you improve in the coming weeks both in work quality and team unity.
