I enjoyed the format of the internship in that Sharon and I would meet a few times a week to discuss what I had worked on and to give me new projects. Sharon gave me the freedom to work on the projects in ways I saw fit and allowed me to work on my own time.

Advice
Try your best to find an employer with similar values to yourself. Sharon and I shared similar outlooks and perspectives on life and I feel this allowed us to mesh very well and created an overall fun experience for me as an intern.

Marketing Intern
May - July 2020 • Havertown, PA
What I liked
I loved that Sharon always encouraged creativity and gave her interns the freedom to do lots of research within certain topics. She was always available to give clear guidance and feedback, but gave enough work to allow independent progress on projects and allowed us to delve into her business mindset first. This internship definitely broadened my ability to see projects with a creative eye.
What I wish was different
I missed the in-person aspect of the internship, but I would still encourage working remotely for Empassion Marketing!
Advice
Understand how to manage your time on certain projects and keep notes of what tasks are on the horizon to help with organization. By the end of the internship, it also serves as an awesome reminder of all the work that was completed! Also, never be afraid to ask questions or challenge your own ideas.
