Where I am going


This past semester at my internship with Fuseideas, I have learned a lot about both the Marketing/PR world and about myself. Most importantly, I learned that I am worthy and prepared to go into the workforce, which has been my biggest fear from the start of this year. As I have mentioned in my final presentation, I am in the running for a summer internship position that has the potential to turn into a full-time job. Ever since my first interview, I have been terrified about whether I get the job or not. Now that I am going back for a second interview in a few days, I have been very nervous and reflecting a lot upon what I do want to do with my life.

What I am learning is that I do really want this opportunity, and it’s not just that I want a job—it’s that I want a job with Fuseideas. In my first interview, the interviewer asked me what my dream job was, and I had a hard time answering that question. What I can answer now is what I like and don’t like. What I don’t like is a giant agency that isn’t personal with their clients like Fuseideas is. I also don’t like the idea of being a blood-thirsty marketing professional that it just looking to make sales because that is not who I am. What I love about Fuseideas is that they are small, they are friends with each other and that they are passionate about what they do. I watched the president give a presentation for an upcoming client meeting and it really impressed me how meaningful and heartfelt it was. My dream job is to feel like that about the work that I am doing and I think that I could achieve that at Fuseideas.
