McGraw-Hill; New York, NY

My responsibilities we promoting the McGraw-Hill online education site, GradeGuru, to the students and faculty on the UMass Campus. We were also expected to full in weekly reports to record our records. Over the course of the placement new goals were given to us as well as activities to maintain each week.

i would rate this placement as Excellent in every category. I would strongly recommend this placement to other students. This is a very fulfilling internship for marketing and communications. You learn networking, public speaking, organization and strategic skills necessary for success in the field.

if i could change one thing i would prefer to get paid rather than receive credits. My advice for other students is to go with something you have a strong interest or passion for.
