Last day at Colosoul

Hi everyone,

This will be the last post as it has come to an end of my placement unit at the Colosoul Group Inc. I have enjoyed every minute of it and it has made me realise that it is the industry I want to work in and I love how busy and hectic it gets, but at the end of the day it pays off and you see the work you have contributed and it is such a relief.

My last day at Colosoul was last week and I had such a good week as I got all the work done and met the deadline requirements, and establish all the contacts that I would need after the internship as I have decided to continue doing work experience/internship at Colosoul as I have been assigned as Event Manager at the next fashion event in 2013; Foxfeet 2013. To be honest I am really stoked about this, because this will be a great experience and I would be able to have the first step/move in Pr in Fashion as that is something I am very passionate about since I knew I wanted a job in PR. There are many challenges are deadlines to meet in such a hectic environment but I enjoy every bit of it and I do not mind doing it as it is a passion I have strongly about.

During my last day, I felt really sad that my internship has come to an end and that I had to leave Colosoul because they were not only colleagues to me but they were like a family. I could build a relationship with the volunteers, including Tricia Ray she is a very good mentor, she taught me the in's and outs of the industry and how I should behave in the competitive media industry if I wanted a full time paid job. She is a very good mentor and a friend, during working hours she lay down the rules and after she would talk to us as if she was our friend and also supports our decission in anything we were passionate about.

For those of you who are looking to get more hands on experience in the media and communication industry, Colosoul is a great way to jump start that career. they give you hands on learning exprience and also provide you the in-sight of how the organisation works in media sector. I will miss the friendly team and wellcoming nature of all the volunteers at Colosoul but it is time to say goodbye and finish my exams before I continue working on next year's fashion festival for Colosoul.

I have learnt that in the media sector there is no time waiting, there is always a DEADLINE and it is a bonus that in WA we have a media organisation that provides mentorship program for university graduates and young people to be able to come on board and see/hear what Colosoul has to offer to the community/public.

Till  next time blogger.
