Hi, my name is Aminata Marshall.
00:00:02:22 – 00:00:08:12
I’m a second semester
sophomore majoring in Business
of Creative Enterprises,
00:00:08:14 – 00:00:13:12
and I’m currently interning in the Boston Symphony Orchestra
00:00:13:14 – 00:00:16:07
as a marketing assistant.
00:00:24:02 – 00:00:25:23
I found this internship
00:00:25:23 – 00:00:29:17
by looking at my WorkDay app,
and I decided to take
00:00:29:17 – 00:00:34:03
this internship because I believed
it was a great opportunity,
00:00:34:03 – 00:00:38:22
as a BCE student, to take a marketing role and do it for music.
00:00:42:06 – 00:00:46:10
My daily routine,
since starting in October,
00:00:46:12 – 00:00:49:04
is being assigned my own individual
00:00:49:04 – 00:00:52:14
marketing projects and meeting deadlines.
00:00:52:16 – 00:00:57:06
The work schedule is hybrid currently, so I work from home
00:00:57:06 – 00:01:00:04
and from the orchestra location.
00:01:03:13 – 00:01:07:23
My favorite part currently is
meeting my coworkers
00:01:08:01 – 00:01:12:17
and I’m working on an advertising brief as of now.
00:01:16:00 – 00:01:18:05
The essential skills for
00:01:18:05 – 00:01:22:03
this position are to be
able to collaborate
00:01:22:03 – 00:01:27:13
well with others and to be able
to work on individual projects.
00:01:27:15 – 00:01:30:19
You also need to ask for help,
if needed, to help
00:01:30:19 – 00:01:34:23
the process of your projects move forward.
00:01:38:13 – 00:01:41:11
The advice I would give to an Emerson student
00:01:41:11 – 00:01:46:15
would be to always update
your resumé and look
for internships early.
00:01:46:17 – 00:01:49:04
It’s better to have everything settled
00:01:49:04 – 00:01:52:12
before then so you can completely focus on
00:01:52:14 – 00:01:57:15
making sure you make your profile
good and presentable.
