Overview
Monitoring press coverage and reporting on this to the team, helping with the day-to-day running of the Honda Rugby Club, attending PR strategy meetings and event planning meetings, assisting with media enquiries and internal communications.
Skills
I have developed my communication skills and copywriting skills exponentially during my placement. My digital software skills have improved alongside my confidence in digital literacy. I have learnt specific terms involved with the PR and Events industry that I am now confident with, and have learnt bookkeeping skills such as invoicing, raising POs, and Goods Receipting.
Responsibilities
Yes- a great deal! I upload press releases which have to be in line with strict national and international embargos. I have also written a blog post for the Honda website and liased with members of national media. i have also had the responsibility of bookkeeping and being in charge of contracts, which has taken a lot of patience and training.
Support & Guidance
I think i received a great deal of support from my team, who have supported and trained me greatly. i do wish there was more training available for financial software and other company-specific software, as they can be quite complicated to use.
Culture
The atmosphere on my team was nothing but supportive, warm, and welcoming. Everyone is treated with respect and given responsibility- I felt instantly welcome. In terms of the wider company, i have found people from all departments to be just as friendly- everyone is willing to help and answer questions and are very approachable around the office- all-in-all, a great atmosphere.
Your Impressions
I definitely enjoyed this placement, and felt very supported and included.
Yes
Definitely take all the company software training opportunities, and get involved in as many cool opportunities as you can!
