1) Enthusiasm – You will get nowhere as a dull, lazy, disinterested employee or Intern. The key to getting the most outof an experience is to be keen to learn and have an active interest.2) Authenticity – People can smell a fake a mile off. Don’t pretend to be someone you’re not, or be interested in doingtasks that don’t suit you; In the end, you’ll come off second best.3) Accepting – As an Intern, be prepared to get the bodgie jobs that no one wants to do. It’s a fact of life and helps notonly the company or agency move along, but will help you get to know particulars of a client or project.4) Proactive – It is common knowledge that people new in a job, unless they’re managed thoroughly, can wind‐updoing nothing throughout a day. Don’t let this happen and do what you can to find tasks to fill‐in your time; A littlequestion – “Do you need help?” ‐ goes a long way.5) Be hungry – Especially when trying to gain the most of your Intern experience or in an attempt to secure a job, ahunger for the media and the relevant industries of the company’s clients is a must. Thorough knowledge isobviously something that grows over time, but planting the seeds from the get‐go is a very wise move.I could not have found a greater team to work with nor a greater company to work for.
