After completing one full week of interning at Cardinal
Communications, I was left feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and reevaluating my
decision of having a career in the field of advertising. Managing the massive
flow of advertisements that the creative team designs is not an easy task. But
after getting adjusted to the environment and familiarizing myself with daily
undertakings, I fell in love with my internship. I appreciate that the advertising industry is
far from a lackluster industry and exciting things happen everyday. Working at
an agency that solely advertises motion pictures has allowed me to have
incredible experiences such as meeting the Oscar nominated director, Bennett
Miller and the President of Sony Pictures Classics. If you asked me during the
first week of my internship if I could see myself pursuing a career in
advertising, I would have most likely answered with a hesitant response. If you
asked me now, I would say absolutely. I admire the creative and informal environment
that Cardinal Communications gives off and I really enjoy interacting with my
co-workers and supervisor. I also value that working at an advertising agency
has allowed me to improve my attention to detail because this is a skill I can
utilize in my professional and educational career. I have to frequently double
check my work when I am budgeting advertisement as well as proofread over the
ads before we send them to the New York Times representatives and other media
outlets. I am so thankful to be interning at Cardinal Communications and look
forward to my last four weeks in New York City.
