McGraw-Hill (UMass); Amherst, MA

Responsibilities;

networking and utilizing social media outlets in order to promote McGraw-Hill's new education start up website "GradeGuru.com". The changes in my primary responsibilities "changed" in the sense that they became easier to accomplish once i had networked with clubs and sports teams.
This placement was excellent in every sense, and i highly recommend that other students take this placement. This is a great company to work for. Not only is it a well recognized brand, but all the supervisors are helpful and friendly. I would not change anything about this placement, it was very fulfilling as it is.

My advice to other students is to go for it! It is a great way to get a feel for certain jobs you may want to pursue in the future.
