I am now half way through my second (and final) internship for this Summer. After this I will be taking a much deserved rest.
I am now currently interning at Style magazine in Buckinghamshire. The magazine is free and distributed around Milton Keynes. I don't have a job role as such but some of what I do is to research paticular ideas for potential editorial features and create stories from Press Releases.
It's been good in showing me how a magazine runs and how it is put together. I am also working alongside the team at MK citizen, which is again a local free paper in Milton Keynes. More than anything, I'm getting to experience mainly journalism techniques. I have been left to work on my own demise, which at times can be a bit tedious. Nethertheless, I am gaining important experience to boost my CV.
Thinking about my future, I definitely think my strengths lie in PR. I really enjoyed it and found that it offers a wide scope. I would however like to try and gain further work experience in a diferent side of a magazine, perhaps one that is more fashion based like Elle, Vogue etc.
