Saggio Technology

Video Marketer

June 2023 • Chicago, IL

What I liked

This internship have been amazing so far and I really liked the mentorship meetings we have every week. My mentor, Dan Ford, gives great feedback on our work and always looking to improve this internship by asking for our feedbacks. I also liked being able to do quests and change things up so we aren't always doing the same thing every week.

What I wish was different

I wish there was an option for an in-person internship because I would love to meet the people that I'm working with. Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing about this internship.

Advice

My advice is to do something you want to improve on instead of something you're familiar and good at. This internship allows you to learn so many new skills that could benefit you. You don't have to be afraid of doing bad because you're here to learn and have fun!

Social Media Intern

June - August 2023 • Columbus, IN

What I liked

Working at Saggio was great! Dan made the internship incredibly enjoyable, giving all the interns room to explore our options, and express ourselves creatively. The internship itself was a lot of fun, and we had a lot to do, from writing social media posts to working on projects that would help Saggio Technology, as well as future interns. If you enjoy having fun at work, Saggio is a great choice.

What I wish was different

Advice

Be ready to work hard. Writing for Saggio is a lot of fun, and you get plenty of opportunities to do different projects, but you need to be ready to work hard. If you give your all, you'll go far in this internship.

Photography

June - August 2023 • Indianapolis, IN

What I liked

There was lots of free time with working on what you needed to do. Everyone is very helpful and friendly. It is a very welcoming environment. You can switch up your normal duties to do other activities like writing, video, or comic quest. It's a nice break if you want to change your normal schedule for a week.

What I wish was different

Connecting a bit more with other interns and getting to know them more. Other than that, I have no other complaints.

Advice

Don't be afraid to ask questions. If you need help, ask. Everyone, especially Dan is very helpful and won't hesitate to help you in a heartbeat.

Video Marketer

June - August 2023 • North Vernon, IN

What I liked

I must begin by expressing that this internship with Saggio Technology as a video marketer has far surpassed all my expectations. From the very first meeting with Dan, our site supervisor, I knew I had landed in a truly remarkable and welcoming environment that has encouraged my personal growth in numerous ways. Dan's exceptional qualities as a mentor have made this experience even more rewarding. He tirelessly works to ensure the comfort and well-being of his interns, values our feedback, and genuinely wants to see us succeed. The opportunity to create and edit videos has been an incredibly enjoyable experience, and to my delight, I have been granted a level of creative freedom beyond what I initially imagined in an internship. Notably, I have also been able to explore other areas, such as crafting engaging social media posts, and even ventured into developing my own ideas, successfully executing them with whole-hearted support from Dan. These newly acquired skills have instilled in me a newfound confidence that I eagerly anticipate applying in the future. One aspect that sets this internship apart for me is the freedom and flexibility it offers in terms of working hours. Having the autonomy to choose when and how long I want to work has been a true blessing, as it allows me to balance my responsibilities and interests effectively. The information provided throughout the internship has been presented in a clear and organized manner, making it easy to follow. In the rare instances where I encountered confusion, Dan promptly addressed my questions, ensuring I had a complete understanding of the tasks at hand. In conclusion, my experience with this internship has been nothing short of wonderful, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a rewarding and enriching opportunity. The support, guidance, and creative space offered have made this journey truly unforgettable, and I am immensely grateful for the valuable skills and experiences I have gained.

What I wish was different

I wish I had the opportunity to get to know my fellow interns better during this internship. However, I am confident that the process for future interns will be significantly improved. Around the halfway point of the internship, we initiated a group-me chat, and we also suggested having meetings with editors much earlier in the program.

Advice

Don’t be afraid to ask if you can try something different one week and do something completely different the next. Through this internship, you have the opportunity to develop so many different skills because of this freedom. Also, don’t be afraid to discuss your own “quest ideas” that aren’t offered. This is the time to explore your creativity, hone your skills, and establish new ones. Stay positive, stay curious, and have fun!

Social Media Marketing Intern

June 2023 • North Vernon, IN

What I liked

I am an international student currently pursuing a Master of Science in Marketing Analytics at the esteemed Simon Business School, University of Rochester. The marketing internship opportunity at Saggio Technology has served as a pivotal gateway for me to step into the dynamic US corporate world. Throughout my time at Saggio, I have been exposed to real-world marketing challenges, allowing me to apply the knowledge and skills I've gained during my academic journey. The hands-on experience has been invaluable, providing me with a deeper understanding of marketing strategies, consumer behavior, and digital advertising. Moreover, being part of the Saggio team has been an enriching experience. The culture of support, mentorship, and collaboration has empowered me to take on new challenges and explore my potential. It's evident that Saggio Technology values the growth and professional development of its interns.

What I wish was different

While my marketing internship at Saggio Technology was an enriching experience overall, there are a few aspects I wish had been different. One such aspect is the duration of the internship. Although the experience was valuable, a longer internship period would have allowed me to delve even deeper into the company's marketing strategies and contribute more substantially to their projects. Additionally, while the culture of support and mentorship was excellent, having more structured feedback sessions could have helped me better track my progress and identify areas for improvement. Overall, while the internship was beneficial, these changes could have further enhanced the learning experience.

Advice

As someone who has completed a marketing internship at Saggio Technology, I would highly advise future interns to actively seek out opportunities to apply their academic knowledge and skills in real-world marketing challenges. Embrace the hands-on experience and immerse yourself in the projects to gain a deeper understanding of marketing strategies, consumer behavior, and digital advertising. Furthermore, take advantage of the culture of support and collaboration within the Saggio team to seek guidance from mentors and team members. Don't hesitate to take on new challenges, as they provide excellent opportunities for growth and professional development. Overall, make the most of this enriching experience to learn, contribute, and explore your potential.

Editor Intern

June - August 2023 • North Vernon, IN

What I liked

I enjoyed being able to make my own schedule and being able to choose whether I wanted to be part-time or full-time at the beginning of the internship. That would be very helpful had I chosen to either take classes during the internship or apply for an internship in the fall or spring, when I would be required to juggle classes, the internship, and possibly a job. I also appreciated how our mentor, Dan Ford, was friendly, kind, and always willing to help out the interns, no matter the situation. Working with him and the other wonderful employees at Saggio, as well as the other interns, made the internship even more enjoyable than it would have been otherwise. Finally, I liked how, even though I was an Editor Intern, I had the option to try out some of the other internships as "quests" if I wanted to. In that way, I discovered my affinity towards manipulating images to post on social media by trying out the Social Media Intern position during my free time.

What I wish was different

I wish the editors had more time to meet with the students they edit for. I appreciate that we were able to meet once this summer per several of our suggestions. (Another great part of this internship is that student suggestions are always welcome!) However, I feel that the one-time meeting did not accomplish as much as I would've liked, because although I prepared material to discuss, only some of my students had questions for me, and even if our conversations were productive, we didn't meet again to follow up on what we talked about. Also, in general, it would be nice to have more time to get to know the students behind the awesome posts I've been editing for weeks. Therefore, I wish we had met together several times throughout the internship instead of just once.

Advice

I would advise you to go into this internship excited to learn about so much more than just technology. When I was accepted into the internship, I didn't know what to expect at first. Saggio is an IT consulting firm, so I thought I would be editing mostly posts about technology. I do edit some tech-related posts, but in reality, Saggio supports all kinds of creative ideas for their posts, with topics ranging widely from animals and sports to even world records, including the largest omelet ever prepared (yes, I edited a post about that!). So, go into the internship with an open mind and be ready to broaden your horizons so you can edit (or write) about a variety of topics!

Social Media Marketer

June - August 2023 • Pittsburgh, PA

What I liked

I really enjoyed that we had the freedom to make posts about a variety of topics. It made it more fun to create graphics and captions about topics I was interested in, especially related to technology. Also, it was very convenient to be remote, and the hours were flexible. I never felt overwhelmed, and had enough time to get everything done.

What I wish was different

I do wish hat we were given more assignments, or more of a variety of things to create. We were given the option at the beginning to ask for more hours, but with working a part-time job on the side, it was decent for me.

Advice

If you want more hours, ask. I probably would have earlier in the internship, but ended up not. If you are working a part-time job, though, the hours will probably be perfect. Also, do not be afraid to ask questions.

Comic Creator

June - August 2023 • Allentown, PA

What I liked

I absolutely loved working with Saggio Technology. It was truly enriching to get to work with so many other creative minds to help create entertaining and hilarious comics! Everything about the schedule was perfect. With it being remote, we were able to make our own schedules and seek collaboration at any time of day. Not to mention, everyone was so supportive and understanding of each other. We were all just striving to make extraordinary comics together. Not only were we ensuring our own success, but we were also helping our colleagues achieve their goals. Working as a team is a big focus at Saggio. Working here is such a perfect way to get a feel for collaboration and to make some great friends along the way! No matter what we were focusing on or how much experience we had, no one ever made a comic alone. Every comic utilized multiple people who critiqued and/or contributed. We were always there to help and guide each other. Companionship is a key component that Saggio emphasizes and encourages. We're all just one happy family at Saggio Technology! Working for them has been an absolute blast!

What I wish was different

I thought my experience was absolutely perfect! I honestly wish I could keep working with them longer. The only downsides were a couple technology/internet issues on my end, but that's just because I worked with them remotely. Working remotely is a great opportunity because you have a more flexible schedule. It also allows you to work with people around the globe! It just might come with some technology or internet issues, which can be expected.

Advice

I would tell someone thinking about working for Saggio to just take the leap of faith! That's what I did and I had such an amazing experience! Even if you're shy, like me, and aren't the best at talking with people, you'll get used to it. It's such a great way to get out of your comfort zone and really be successful. It's always great to work with others instead of on your own, and we all understand if you're shy. Don't be afraid to get out of your comfort zone and you'll had some truly amazing experiences, like working for Saggio Technology!

Editor Intern

June - August 2023 • North Vernon, IN

What I liked

My time thus far at Saggio Technology has been an amazing growth experience for me both as a student and a person! I have enjoyed being able to work at my own pace while continuously being challenged to improve my skill set at the same time. The internship is definitely what you put into it, though. Many of the assignments designed to challenge students outside the regular workload are optional. So, you have to want to step outside your comfort zone. I personally enjoy this format as it allows me to work harder when I am in a productive mood and then do a little less work when I am having an off day. Dan, the man in charge of all Saggio internships, is another reason the internship is so great. Dan constantly uplifts everyone around him. He is humble, kind, and generous. He constantly encourages every intern to be the best version of himself possible. Dan, however, will not be leading the internships in the future. So, I will say a few words about Nate, who will be taking over in the Fall of 2023. Nate is an extremely hard-working person who always wants the best for everyone around him. I have no doubt that Nate will do an amazing job and continue to improve the internship for years to come! Finally, the schedule of the internship is, in my opinion, the optimal setup. For the editor internship, we meet once a week on Mondays for 1 hour. This is the time when we praise people we feel have done well in the past week, discuss the statistics of Saggio's social media platforms, and hear any important announcements for the coming week. There is also a 30-minute optional meeting on Wednesdays designed for interns to be able to pop in and ask any questions they have regarding the internship. Other than those two structured meetings, interns are left to their own devices to get their work done in a timely manner. This internship is very much like a job environment, which I absolutely love. I will forever be grateful to Dan and Saggio Technology for this amazing experience they have given me!

What I wish was different

The one thing that I wish had been different is the level of interaction the editor interns had with the content creators we were editing for. The process felt very disconnected at the beginning of my internship. I like to really get to know the people I am editing for. So, the fact that editors only communicated over email with the content creators at the beginning of my internship was difficult for me personally. However, I know that this policy is actively in the process of being changed. In the future, there will be regular meetings designed for editors and content creators to get to know each other and ask any questions they may have.

Advice

The one piece of advice I have for future Saggio interns or those considering applying is to participate in every opportunity offered to you during your internship. Do your best to never say no and you will walk away from your internship with so much more growth and knowledge than you walk in with. As I said above, this internship is what you make of it, seize every opportunity you possibly can and you will not regret it!

Social Media Intern

June - August 2023 • North Vernon, IN

What I liked

I loved getting to know Dan and the other interns. Dan is extremely good at multi-tasking and making you feel like you're his only intern, even though he is busy with many others! For my role, I was instructed to create social media posts every week of my choosing. We were given topic ideas, but had a lot of creative license. I loved the support and feedback from Dan as I learned how to produce better posts.

What I wish was different

I wouldn't have minded some more specific prompts or instructions, but Dan is always willing and ready to apply feedback! If there is something you're not sure about, don't hesitate to ask him.

Advice

Apply today!! If you're running out of time to find an internship like I was, Saggio may very well be your answered prayer. Once you get the internship, complete your weekly tasks on time, and engage with Dan and others during the meetings to stay connected and involved.

Editor Intern

June 2023 • Rock Hill, SC

What I liked

This internship has been a fantastic journey and a great way to gain valuable experience. As an editing intern, I've enjoyed working with fellow interns to edit their posts and watch them grow as writers. It's also been great to work with the other editing interns, and I can say that I've made friends along the way. Saggio Technology has been an incredibly welcoming team, making this internship fly by. If I ever needed help or clarification, my mentor, Daniel Ford, was more than willing to help. Nathanael Planalp, a fellow intern and rising mentor, has also been a great help on many occasions. The team-focused atmosphere the two fostered was inspiring and made everyone feel at ease. Overall, this internship has given me experience in the editing and writing world and has also given me a glimpse into professional marketing. I've enjoyed getting to know professionals in the business and the opportunity to build my resume and connections. Learning how to have professional meetings and interactions with others was very valuable, and I've enjoyed working on quests to better Saggio as a whole.

What I wish was different

Although the editing internship is new to Saggio Technology, it felt like a very established position. I loved working with Dan and my fellow editor interns to determine what this role entails. I honestly couldn't ask for a better learning experience. Dan was more than willing to adapt the internship as the weeks went by to better the experience for the current editors and future interns. His willingness to accept feedback and incorporate new ideas was terrific, leading to a better overall experience. I loved getting to know the writers whose work I've edited, which was possible because of the suggestions of my fellow editors and Dan's enthusiasm for trying these recommendations. Overall, I wouldn't change anything about this internship, and I hope that Saggio's adaptability stays the same for future interns!

Advice

The best piece of advice that I would share about this experience is to ask! Ask those questions, even if you're only mildly unsure–Dan and Nate are more than willing to help. Ask about taking on extra work or projects–Saggio would love to have the help, and the experience you'll gain can only help you! Ask about making changes or tweaks to how things are done–they'll gladly hear you out and adjust where needed! This internship provides a fun and friendly environment where you and your fellow interns can thrive and grow. Don't be afraid to ask those questions! You'll gain even more valuable experience, making this internship even more enjoyable for everyone. Enjoy the ride, and don't be afraid to be yourself because working for Saggio is like joining the family.

Editor Intern

June 2023 • North Vernon, IN

What I liked

I really like gaining experience editing. I edit for 5 interns each week. One thing that was really cool about this internship was that there were quests, and we are encouraged to try things we might not have experience doing. There were different categories of quests such as creating videos, writing, etc. If I had to choose the thing I like most, though, it would be the friendly, approachable culture of the company. My feedback was valued, and I felt like I did not have to hold back when giving it. I also really liked that the internship was remote and flexible.

What I wish was different

There is a lot of great things about this internship, and there is not much I would change. When anything has come up that we wish was different, usually it just involves a conversation where we give feedback, and our thoughts are taken into consideration, especially considering the summer semester was the first time the editor internship was offered.

Advice

Don't be scared to share feedback or ask questions. Dan is always very open to receiving feedback. A few times, we had votes in our weekly meetings about whether we wanted to implement someone's idea. In addition, I was having problems with one of my video quests, and Dan walked me through how to fix the problem. Internships can feel intimidating, but if you're looking for a place to learn, grow, and share your ideas, this is the company for you.

Content Writer

June - August 2023 • North Vernon, IN

What I liked

I really liked the flexibility that this internship offers. Because it is 100% remote, I was able to work on tasks on my own time while maintaining a healthy balance of free time. I also feel like I learned a lot about marketing and the tech industry which were two areas that I did not have a ton of experience with before. Finally, I loved the community at Saggio. Everyone was very nice and always willing to offer advice or help however I needed.

What I wish was different

While I loved the remote aspect, I also felt that there was room for me to be doing more. All of the projects I worked on were great and I felt like they taught me a lot, but I also felt that they perhaps did not fill up enough of my time. I also felt as time went by some of the tasks started to get repetitive as I wanted to learn more and more about marketing and the opportunities that the field offers.

Advice

Don't be afraid to explore your creative side and ask lots of questions if anything is unclear! Your mentor will most likely ask for lots of input about ways that the program can be improved, so if there is anything that you think could be better or more beneficial for your development you should voice those opinions. This is a great internship program and I would recommend it to anyone interested in getting started in marketing.

Assistant to the CMO

June - August 2023 • St. Louis, MO

What I liked

Working at Saggio Technology, I really appreciate the flexibility of the job. Dan Ford encouraged me to complete multiple tasks that weren't under my job description. This job allows for personal growth, manageable hours, and a positive work environment.

What I wish was different

With this job, I only wished that I would communicate with my fellow colleagues more. My job was strictly 1-on-1 with the CMO. But I feel like I am missing out on networking opportunities.

Advice

One piece of advice would be to go for it. You are bound to find a job title that you like or that goes with your major. Instead of hesitating, I say experience the internship at Saggio!

Social Media Marketing

January 2023 • Cleveland, OH

What I liked

Interning at Saggio has been an overall amazing experience so far. The work hours fit perfectly in my schedule and the workload is challenging, but respectful to each interns personal time, as most of us are still taking classes at the same time. Everybody on the team feels like we each care for one another and the workspace on Teams really promotes a "family-oriented" approach to teamwork. I have also learned a lot with this internship that I will be able to use in my future careers and in everyday life. I began with almost no video editing experience or marketing knowledge, and now I am able to edit entire videos with voiceovers. I would highly recommend to anyone seeking implementation and practice with technology related work.

What I wish was different

There is honestly nothing I would change about this internship, I really think it is perfect in terms of what I was looking for and expecting. The only thing that I would change on my end would be to set aside more time on off days to continue to improve my skills in each field.

Advice

To anyone thinking about doing this internship or already involved, I would tell them to work on any skills that they want to improve each day. The internship allows you to work on your own projects at your own pace, so if you are interested in picture created, you should work on that each day, or if you have other interests then you should seek to improve them each time you clock in.

Content Writing Intern

January - April 2023 • Columbus, IN

What I liked

What I like about this internship is that there are endless opportunities for you to express yourself and grow as an individual. The environment is extremely encouraging and welcoming, and everyone is always pushing to be better than they were yesterday, which is very awesome to see. I am able to push myself and try new things, and with Dan's excellent guidance I am learning more about marketing and creating content that I can take with me to any workplace environment!

What I wish was different

This internship is structured very well and is very flexible, making work and class schedules easy to fit into this internship's schedule, and the layout of each day is consistent, which I also really appreciated. If I wished anything were different, maybe the prompts of posts being more specific. I am someone that is big on following directions and doing things the right way, and this internship allows you to follow your own path and go after things you are interested in, which is amazing! Just for me personally, having more specific prompts could have been helpful.

Advice

Just go for it. You are given time to create pieces of art, so it is better to go all out and deliver the best work that you can! There is always room for growth and things to learn, so I found it very beneficial to be as detailed as possible and just have fun with the pieces I was creating!

Video Marketing Intern

January 2023 • Dallas, TX

What I liked

My experience at Saggio Technology has been riveting. I originally wanted to do photography but when I got to the interview I had no idea they also had videography/video marketing and I’m a media major so I really wanted to do that as well. Dan immediately said that I could do both and I was ecstatic to be able to contribute to both departments. Along my journey, I’ve had help readily when I needed it, been given tons of guidance, as well as great critiques on how to perfect my work for the company. I even met the CEO! Which was amazing in itself, but I can tell that he’s incredibly passionate about his company, his employees and helping others. Knowing that the people who are a part of Saggio technology love their job, makes me love creating work for them more. I’m incredibly busy and a remote internship was perfect for me. I tried 2 other internships but there was always a problem with the company’s credibility or that they were not kind. I think I hit the jackpot with Saggio. I think I could write a few pages of how I feel about the company and I still am not through with my internship. I will just say that I’ve had a great time learning and getting experience in video and photography that will push me forward to new experiences and opportunities.

What I wish was different

I honestly have no quarrels. It's been a fun internship and my first real one. I feels as though I've learned so much in the process of 2 months and I know I'll soon be learning more. I get to do what I'm passionate about and actually contribute to helping a company grow.

Advice

My advice is always ask questions. Never be afraid to communicate. They aren't going to be upset if you do. The more questions you ask, the better you'll understand the ways things work and what you're supposed to do.

Social Media Content Creator

January 2023 • Emmitsburg, MD

What I liked

As a social media content creator with Saggio Technology, I had an excellent experience working with a team of creative and knowledgeable professionals and fellow interns. I was able to apply my passion for social media and content creation in a meaningful way, contributing to posts and content. The team at Saggio Technology provided me with the tools and resources I needed to excel in my role. They were always available to answer my questions and offer feedback on my work. I felt supported and valued as a team member, which motivated me to produce high-quality content that aligned with the company's goals and values. Working with Saggio Technology also gave me the opportunity to learn and grow as a content creator. I had access to the latest tools/resources, allowing me to experiment with new formats and techniques. The team also encouraged me to attend industry events and conferences, which helped me stay up-to-date on the latest trends and best practices. Overall, being a social media content creator with Saggio Technology was a rewarding experience that allowed me to showcase my skills and creativity in a collaborative and dynamic environment. I would highly recommend Saggio Technology to any content creator looking to work with a company that values innovation, creativity, and teamwork.

What I wish was different

Saggio had overall been a positive experience, however, the content over the course of the internship has relied solely on my own ideas. I would have benefitted from more guidance on the social media content expected of me, as I had to rely on the guidance of past posts and make the decisions on what to base my content on.

Advice

One piece of advice that I would give any social media intern is to go in with an open mind. Explore your creativity, and use this opportunity to gain the experience to work with certified professionals and other interns. Use the resources you are given to be able to build your portfolio and other things that would be able to help gain another job in the future, or potentially expand beyond your internship into a full-time job with the company.

Marketing Intern

January - April 2023 • North Vernon, IN

What I liked

I like internships in Saggio Technology. Here I can use all my creativity to make social media posts and put forward related descriptions. No need to worry about making mistakes. The supervisor is really friendly, and he will provide guidelines and support when needed.

What I wish was different

I wish there could be some market analyzing tasks.

Advice

Don't be afraid of making mistakes. Dan is a really nice person and he won't judge you if you are not doing well. You are good as long as you tried and put effort.

Content Writer

January 2023 • Columbus, IN

What I liked

I have really enjoyed my time here at Saggio. It has been beneficial not just for the company, but also for me. The base of my internship has been in creating Social Media content, as a Content Writing intern I focus specifically on captions. Often I collaborate with other interns to produce the end-product of a Social Media post. Obviously these are used to market the company, but the posts themselves are also good additions to my professional portfolio. In this way I have a sort of mutualistic relationship with the company. But it isn't just the posts that are a benefit to me. Honestly, the experience of working at Saggio has taught me how I like to work, and what I should expect in a professional setting. I've learned that I like to work collaboratively, but I can't do it all the time. Especially if I 'm working on an idea of my own, I like to work independently. This experience isn't some sort of byproduct either, it is the goal of Saggio to help their interns grow. Which I have benefited from, and really respect.

What I wish was different

There isn't a ton that I would change about my experience so far. As I said in my answer to the previous question, my internship has been quite beneficial. But there are some things I wish I could do. These aren't necessarily the fault of the company, or the internship, but they have stunted my ambition in some areas. For example, one of the things I wanted to do early on was write short blog posts/ articles about technology for the company. I was denied the ability to do that because Saggio uses a 3rd-party service to automatically post articles on their website. My real ambition there was to do longer-form writing, and so to do that I got permission to explore email marketing. While that initial denial might have been disappointing, I was able to overcome it by creatively thinking inside the confines of the internship. The point is that while there might be small disappointing issues, they have no larger impact on the purpose of the internship and its benefit to you.

Advice

I would say not to expect anything super easy. It's true that the expectations of this internship might not be as hard as some others you might be looking at, but that doesn't not mean you can coast. You are expected to put good work out, and if you really work for yourself the experience can be highly rewarding.
