Hi, I am Jessica Haslam and I have joined the team at Personnel Today for a week's work experience. I am studying media along with English, information communication technology (ICT) and psychology at my 6th form (at Carshalton High School for Girls) and have found media to be my favourite. This is what made me decide to do my work experience at Personnel Today. During this work experience I would like to...
· get an idea of what working in this industry involves as well as gain experience and confidence.
· have an idea on whether this is the right career choice for me.
· improve my writing, ICT, and media skills so that it may benefit me in my second year of 6th form.
· gain a clearer idea of an office working environment and see whether it is the right option for me.
· see first hand how the magazine industry works instead of just hearing about it through my studies.
· get a nice break from school work and exams, and enjoy a different type of work.
I will be writing another blog at the end of the week and hope to have achieved at least some of this rather than being put off of this career. I am really looking forward to the rest of this week and have a feeling I will be kept nice and busy!
