Reflection #5
September 27, 2021
1. What projects, internships, volunteer work or life experiences would help you develop and/or showcase skills for the jobs you shared last week? What projects, internships, volunteer work have you done which already align with those employers’ needs?
When I first started out as a social media moderator, I also helped with posting content and moderating comments for a church I was attending at the time. It really helped me to learn more about the engagement side of the business and I was able to speak to that on a more familiar level during my presentations at work.
2. What classes/certifications do you think would help you grow in confidence? If you had an extra 30 minutes-1 hour each day, what would you love to study or practice to advance yourself/career?
I would like to take a creative writing workshop if I had an extra thirty minutes in a day. I think it would help to avoid writing ruts and overuse of the same phrasing. It would really help me to stay fresh and energetic about the way I write.
3. Who would be someone you would enjoy interviewing to learn more about their work, company, and story? Identify two people you would like to reach out to. #informationalinterview
I would like to learn from the marketing team at Crumbl Cookies and see what kind of planning goes into changing the menu each week. Also, I think it would be interesting to interview Simon Sinek and talk about the golden circle and how he came to finding his why.
