Marketing Intern Review

I work across both the Marketing team and Direct-to-Consumer team within my department. This involves supporting on marketing campaigns for titles, by monitoring the delivery of marketing materials, assisting with administrative tasks, liaising with eternal media agencies, and monitoring our social media channels. Day-to-day tasks can involve using financial systems such as SAP, SIM and PowerApps to set up vendors and pay them. It can also include speaking with our Dubroom to deliver marketing materials for us to use on our campaigns and managing screening links to external companies to support our PR team.

I have learnt and developed many skills since being on my placement year including: - Email and office etiquette. - Presenting skills, in weekly team meetings. - Communication skills across the team and business, as well as external stakeholders. - Improved my multi-tasking skills, working across two teams and supporting projects I have raised an interest in. - I have built knowledge of terms within the entertainment industry, being able to apply my skills and knowledge learnt in university.

I have been given a lot of responsibility during my placement year, and it is made clear that I am a valued member of the team, as an intern. - By supporting marketing managers on big presentations for filmmakers, BASE submissions and Kick-offs. - Managing the delivery of marketing materials such as key art, trailers and other core assets, - Being given full responsibility to liase with our marketing agency for our Own Your Goals app, for approval of posts and flexibility to be honest and request changes. - Being able to have the opportunity to work along my manager to work on the process of a marketing campaign for a film.

I have received a lot of support and guidance during my placement year, from the early careers team as well as my team and managers. My managers are understanding of my workload, working across two teams, and are always supportive of new opportunities I would like to take on whilst on my placement year, and actively encourage me to network and speak with people in the business who's roles I am interested in.

The company culture and general atmosphere is fun and energetic. The team is positive and the department actively appreciate everyone, through forums every quarter, where we run through how each team has done. The atmosphere in these are always energetic and exciting, where the department come together and make working a bit more social.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my placement year, and am disappointed at the thought of going back to University. The culture at NBCUniversal is very fun, and not every day is the same, so i have picked up numerous skills from working under tight deadlines, multi tasking, and also communicating with people all around the business. With bi-weekly screenings, it is always exciting to see the films we work on and put effort in. I have had such a good experience working on two teams, and being able to apply my knowledge from university into the real world of work and working in marketing.

Yes

I would advise for the applicants to ensure they are knowledgable on the company, their role,why they want to work here and how the companies' values match theirs.
