This is my second week at the Clear Agency and I have well and truly settled in. No longer being 'the new girl' means I am now highly susceptible to office banter which is not only entertaining, but makes the day go a lot quicker. I've really fallen on my feet in a relaxed workplace where everyone gets along which is such a relief. The commuting doesn't phase me any more, nor do the hours; but then I have worked full time before. Regardless, this interning business is a lot more enjoyable than I predicted.
A bombshell was dropped on me at the start of the week - Amber, the head of PR is leaving to go on holiday for three weeks, Thursday being her last day. I think I just got promoted! I've now got to hold the fort more or less entirely as the others in the office have sales/ marketing/ accounts roles only... no pressure. At least I've had a few days for her to fill me in on everything that I need to do while she's off sunbathing, but I'm still slightly worried I will crash and burn once she's gone.
So far this week I have been writing more draft press releases and e-mail alerts. I've found that it's so much easier to write about the brands which I myself would buy, rather than those aimed at a demographic with wrinkles and a lot more cash to spare. It's made me think that if I'm going to go into PR after my degree then I would probably enjoy being in-house for a label that I really like.
