Internship

This six week intership program will soon come to an end. During this program, I have learned a lot from my mentor. Before I take this intern, I know nothing about this industry. I'm really nervous because I haven't got too much professional knowledge about PR. But after I worked in the company for a week, I gradually understood the work of PR industry and also met many lovely colleagues. Although I didn't have a lot of chances to fully put what I have learned from the class into practice, the experience in this brand-new team is important and memorable. This internship is just the first step for my future career. No matter whether I will work in the same industry in the future, what I have seen and heard in this company and all the projects I have participated in will be a valuable experience for me.

internship

My company is a young tech start-up focusing on AI chips with a young workforce. Although the scale is not large, the work content is quite rich, especially about the Chinese artificial intelligence market, which makes me have a deeper understanding, which also makes me more and more interested in this field. Recently, I also learned more about the industry through attending some science and technology innovation exhibitions as an exhibitor and felt the atmosphere of creative city, Shenzhen.

Moreover, the conversation with my supervisor also impressed me a lot, she told me that some details in your performance or attitude will be critical for your future. In short, this internship helped me understand the operation mode and daily work of start-up companies, so it was very helpful to me.

Shenzhen internship

How time flies! This internship is nearing its end. During this six weeks’ studying and working, I feel I have learned some practical skills about company analysis and financial industry which will be helpful for my future career life. In the past, I have acquired some economic knowledge, but I have no opportunity to apply it to the work. This time, by this internship programme, I have a chance to apply what I have learned to solve practical problems and accumulate working experience. As a rookie in the workplace, this internship is the first step to start my career and it makes me know how to behave in the working environment.

All in all, I am so glad to have this internship experience and I really learned a lot by this internship. I hope this program will help more students in the future.

Review

During this time, I learned a lot of things that I couldn't learn at school, and I realized a lot of my own shortcomings. The following is a summary of my work during the internship and some of my own experiences.For me, the internship gives me more opportunities to try different jobs and play different social roles. Through the internship I found my true potential and interest, which helped me to define my future career direction. As a student, I believe that the purpose of learning is to acquire knowledge and acquire work skills. In other words, to study at school is to be able to adapt to the needs of society. Through learning, we can ensure that we can accomplish future work and contribute to society. It is a blessing for me to be able to enter the company as an internship to adapt to the society. I understand the actual needs of the work through the internship and make the purpose of learning more clear.

internship in Corerain in Shenzhen

Having been an intern of Corerain in Shenzhen for almost one month, I think I gain a lot from this experience. First of all, it provides me with plenty of cases in real life about how to sell a product and how to conduct marketing procedure. Other than that, I also acquired some useful technical skills like the layer covering and photoshop. For the rest time, I will also make my every endeavor to overcome all the difficulties in work and achieve my individual value finally.

Generally speaking, there is a big gap between the school's living environment and the social working environment. During these six weeks, I learned how to change the role of a student to a professional. The school focuses on developing students' learning and professional skills. The society focuses on the professional knowledge and business skills of its employees. In order to meet the social survival requirements, in addition to strengthening the theoretical knowledge in the classroom, we must personally contact the society to participate in work practices. This internship experience allowed me to consolidate my knowledge and use it, broaden my horizons and enrich my knowledge.

intern

I am so excited about this intern experience. I learned a lot from this intern. In addition to better understanding of professional knowledge, I have also learned the necessary qualities of some professionals, such as pragmatism, innovation and so on.
From the first day of internship,I was deeply impressed by the harmonious atmosphere, humanized management and pragmatic work style. As an intern in marketing department, collecting information is the basic and important job. In the process of collecting samples and information, I learned a lot about their brand in the industry. Also, in each week, I need to write two articles, which improved my writing skill. I felt this is a meaningful experience. This internship can complete my resume as well.

Six weeks intern in SH

The overall internship experience was good. From start, NSC found me several consulting and event planning companies up to my expectation. I chose to go to a boutique digital consulting company. It was a startup and half of the workers here are interns. Before this internship, I only had experience at financial instituitions and I was not familiar with social media management, advertising and copywrighting at all. My supervisor and coworkser were very helpful. They explained the assigned work very detailedly. And they were glad to give me advises to improve working efficiency. During the internship, I learnt about consulting industry and digital advertising. The workload was heavy but I did learnt a lot. It definitely prepared me for my future career.

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
All the coworkers are very devoted to work. The avarage working time is over 12 hours a day. Startups are good for people who want to gain knowledge and experiences in a very short time.

New Experience

The six-week internship in Shanghai allowed me to turn the theories learnt into practices and understand the China market more thoroughly. Shanghai is a good place to stay at, with convenient transportation, efficient food delivery service, friendly environemnt, cozy weather, as well as a huge variety of food and many leisure places to visit during the weekend. The Program enabled me to experience Shanghai in different ways and meet some new friends here. People here are friendly and helpful. The working culture here is quite flexible and easy to adapt to. Working in a multinational company specializes in travel marketing, PR and communications, and digital marketing enabled me to learn more about the industry and the latest travel market trends, which helped my future career development.

Enjoy and food and places here. Try new things, and remember to apply for mobile payment methods.
