Job Title: <\/strong>Marketing Assistant <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Description of Organisation:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally founded in 1960, David and Charles is a leader in illustrated non-fiction publishing with a focus on craft and creative categories. From our base in Exeter, Devon, we publish around 50 new books each year which we distribute globally. Alongside our books, we run the distance learning website rsnonlinecourses.com, in partnership with the Royal School of Needlework. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What was your biggest achievement on your internship?<\/strong>   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I surpassed the goal set for me by increasing our US audience by nearly 50% in two months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Were there any challenges and how did you overcome these?<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had two surgeries for my cystic fibrosis which meant that I faced uncertainty during my internship. I kept in close contact with my manager and was able to continue working at a scale that was manageable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Would you recommend this internship scheme to other students?<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes I would recommend this internship scheme. The A2i team were brilliant in helping me to secure this internship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you would like to find out more about the A2i scheme, you can contact the team via a2i@exeter.ac.uk. You can also visit the student<\/a> and employer<\/a> facing webpages here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
