Although the internship layout changed slightly from not having to physically visit my place of employment, having the internship online I think was incredibly&nbsp;insightful. It is anticipated that many&nbsp;future&nbsp;businesses and jobs will be relying on staff members to work remotely. Having&nbsp;already experienced this style of working,&nbsp;I think will&nbsp;work&nbsp;to my advantage. Many skills can be gained from this, such as the ability to work independently and focus on the task at hand, despite&nbsp;being in a home environment. Also, I had to take greater initiative to ask for help and guidance which has definitely improved my confidence. It was particularly important to pace the workload myself, again,&nbsp;developing&nbsp;my self-confidence and independence.&nbsp;I had the freedom granted by my employer to add my own personal touches to my work, such as, filming my own videos and carrying out independent research. This was a particularly useful element of the internship since employers depend on reliable and focused employees (especially while working from home).&nbsp;Also, having to use \u2018zoom\u2019 to communicate with my manager was another way in which my confidence developed.&nbsp;Especially since this is a relatively new means of communication, I was glad to have gained this experience in preparation for future roles.&nbsp;Generally, having had the opportunity to have worked during the peak of the pandemic I think has prepared me to adapt to a new style of independent and online working, something which not everybody&nbsp;has experience in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why would you recommend a Professional Pathways internship to future students?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would recommend a Professional Pathways internship to future students, since it allows the freedom of independent work, as well as gaining important skills to adapt to the current circumstances.&nbsp;A lot of students, in particular, haven\u2019t had the opportunity to gain relevant work experience recently,&nbsp;making the job market more competitive than ever. This is why I feel the Professional Pathways Internship was really useful,&nbsp;due to its accessibility&nbsp;to all students&nbsp;at the university&nbsp;and&nbsp;the transferral of up-to-date skills, adapting to&nbsp;a new way of working.&nbsp;I also felt that my employer gave me the freedom to choose what I wanted to work on, developing my&nbsp;previous&nbsp;skills as well as having new experiences (especially using \u2018zoom\u2019 as a prime means of communication).&nbsp;I also found the application process very useful&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;submitting my cover letter and&nbsp;often having&nbsp;multiple interviews in one week&nbsp;in an online format.&nbsp;I became very familiarised with this interview process, meaning that the next time I apply for a job, I won\u2019t feel&nbsp;so&nbsp;nervous or unprepared.&nbsp;I also really liked the variety of jobs available under the internship programme, allowing a choice to be made about which skills and experiences I would have liked to develop.&nbsp;This is often unusual with internship programmes which often require specific experiences and skills.&nbsp;Overall, I would recommend the internship programme for any student who wants to embellish their CV by gaining valuable skills, such as independent working and developed self-confidence.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Name: Lottie Newman Degree Programme: BA Greek and Roman Studies Year of Study: 3 Pathway Programme: Arts, Heritage and Culture Internship Role: Project and Audience [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[49],"tags":[173],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Student Case Study - Project and Audience Manager - UoE Internship Schemes<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/2021\/10\/05\/student-blog-post-project-and-audience-manager\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Student Case Study - Project and Audience Manager - UoE Internship Schemes\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Name: Lottie Newman Degree Programme: BA Greek and Roman Studies Year of Study: 3 Pathway Programme: Arts, Heritage and Culture Internship Role: Project and Audience [&hellip;]\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/2021\/10\/05\/student-blog-post-project-and-audience-manager\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"UoE Internship Schemes\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-10-05T08:24:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-02-26T11:04:50+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Mark\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Mark\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/2021\/10\/05\/student-blog-post-project-and-audience-manager\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/2021\/10\/05\/student-blog-post-project-and-audience-manager\/\",\"name\":\"Student Case Study - Project and Audience Manager - UoE Internship Schemes\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2021-10-05T08:24:15+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-02-26T11:04:50+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/#\/schema\/person\/f55c794873afd5892e3c96ddf775f5b2\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/2021\/10\/05\/student-blog-post-project-and-audience-manager\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/2021\/10\/05\/student-blog-post-project-and-audience-manager\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/2021\/10\/05\/student-blog-post-project-and-audience-manager\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/internships\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Student Case Study &#8211;
