There, I have learned the value of effective communication, and creativity in the workplace. During the summer and the Fall semester of my Senior year, I was an unpaid marketing intern at Crossroads Co.Lab, an advertising agency in Baltimore. I learned how to create content that people were attracted to, and how to build relationships and work collaboratively with other marketing professionals. In my sophomore year, I was a banquet server at a nearby country-club, which, although not related to my major, taught me how to be hospitable, and focused on customer service. I’m also the “go-to” pet sitter and babysitter in my neighborhood. | Jill Jahries | jjahries@bcps.org | Edward C. Martin | emartin3@bcps.org | Penn State - University Park | ||||||||||||||||
