The last day of my PR internship was hectic. It was treated as any other day, busy busy busy. I was responsible for sourcing more potential clientele for one of our clients, F45 Fitness. I was also tasked with finding local online media that could potentially be contacted to support our client.
It seemed like a blur - how quickly those 20 days had passed me by, and I felt like I had learned so much, and yet had so much more to learn about the industry and what the future in PR would hold for me.. It made me realise that business stops for nobody, and it's not like a retail job where you can just go home after a long day and forget about it - no, it is an urgent, full-time lifestyle, and with the amount of responsibility which was placed on my team, I could see how much it permeated into everyone's everyday lives.
This PR Internship really made me think hard about what kind of business or industry I'd like to work for later on in life. I had a great time at The Brand Hierarchy, however, reading through others' experiences in their blog posts has made me realise what a different and unique experience it was in itself. Not many people get to experience working first-hand under a small business, and I was fortunate enough to land myself in that position.
I am grateful to Karlee for taking me on whilst already having a lot going on in terms of business restructuring and expansion, and I will never forget my experience at The Brand Hierarchy.

A little look into my Professional Placement....
Hi Everyone,
Welcome to my first blog!
New to the blogging scene, a little bit nervous yet excited, so hopefully I provide a good read!
My PR 393 Professional Placement isn't your expected scene for a mid twenty something university student, yet my completed days so far have definitely been interesting. I am completing my professional placement days at the Head Office of Bowls WA.
Bowls WA is an organisation responsible for advancing, promoting and controlling the game of lawn bowls in WA. The organisation is in affiliation with Bowls Australia, who are the national sporting organisation responsible for developing and managing the sport of lawn bowls. While many people still believe the sport is only played by retirees, national census statistics prove that the sport is actually very popular with school children and social corporate bowlers!
Bowls WA is one of the largest sporting organisations in WA, consisting of 18, 965 members from over 200 clubs. The organisation is managed by a board of eight directors and has a small team of seven full time staff members. Bowls WA takes on a variety of tasks including promoting the sport, conducting State championships, conducting pennant competitions, managing interstate teams, training and giving assistance to clubs and members with management issues.
Whilst PR practices vary from business to business, I hope to gain as much experience as possible during my stay. I will be working closely with the Public Relations and Marketing team and I look forward to sharing all my days with you.
I hope you enjoy my blogs!
Kind regards,
Lauren Hannah
