Every new challenge you face in life is likely to push you.
This internship has most definitely been no exception having thrown me straight
into the deep end.
Let me begin by telling you about how my placement started…
It was Thursday afternoon and I had been unable to focus on
anything all day knowing that I had an Interview at 1pm with my potential
placement employers. Professional presentation in check, my head held high, I
marched into my interview determined to walk out with a secured placement. What
I didn’t know was how much more I really would leave with.
My interview very quickly turned into somewhat of a client
briefing and not only was I in but I had a media launch to organise in less
than two weeks. Filled with
excitement I left the office on somewhat of a high thinking…

Only for it all to come crashing down the second I got home
to realise how much work I had to do and how little time there really was. With my mind working overtime, the
settling thought was knowing that I didn’t need to worry; I know what I am doing.
Without even realising it I went into autopilot starting the
procedure I needed to. It was at this stage I truly realised that Curtin and my
degree have prepared me for my first step out into the real world and I have
enough knowledge to really tackle this placement head on.
