Amherst Media; Amherst, MA

Job Responsibilities:


  • Updating blogs, Twitter, and Facebook

  • Build PowerPoints for new interns

  • Other various projects

There were minor to no changes to my responsibilities during my placement.


I would rate this placement as very good.


I would definitely recommend this company. The networking is a tremendous asset for when you graduate.


There is little change I would make to this placement such as better communication with my supervisors and hear any criticisms they may have for me.


Advice I would give students is to never fear anything and keep in mind that you need to treat it like a real job no matter the compensation.
