Why should you be hired?
I believe I should be hired because of my self-starter attitude and compiled skills learned not only as a undergraduate student but through my work experience. Being able to juggle a full time students work load along with internships and jobs has taught me how to to prioritize and handle difficult situations professionally and with ease. All of this can make me an asset to any team or company.
Bio
I am a recent grad looking to start my media marketing career! My most recent experience was as a publicity intern for the Penguin Group. Here i learned how write press releases and pitch letters to prospective writers and reviewers. I also had the opportunity to work at MTV as a marketing intern. Working at MTV really allowed me to improve on my research and organizational skills. Finally, I have had almost 4 years of experience working for a small teen marketing firm called FAME media. I was able to improve on my interpersonal communication skills through helping plan focus groups, teen parties and after proms. All my experience put together makes my dynamic enough to work in almost any media setting.
