Reebok; Canton, MA

Responsibilities;
*Develop cross-agency/ international communications
*Assist media and PR team with daily tasks
*assist in invoice/ tracking information
Once I got a better understanding of my job I was let to do more on my own and to progress.

I think this placement was very good or average and I recommend it to other students that are interested. The transition from a student to a working class person is incredible and I think everyone should experience it before graduation. If I could change one thing about this placement I might ask for friendlier interpersonal relations or better work hours.

My advice to others is to be as proactive as you can. Networking is key, whether you're in the copy room, on a break, or eating lunch, talking to people will get you far.
