This internship was the perfect opportunity for me to build up my CV and gain work experience in digital media, an industry I have always been interested in. I also wanted to broaden my career prospects after Uni.
Career Connect
It was an online application through Career Connect and then I was invited to interview with Lifeprint.fit
I have also always been interested in the media industry and the company's advocacy for helping people and their wellbeing are values that I am passionate about. I wanted to be a part of writing content that helps people and makes a difference.

I enjoyed content writing and researching different topics to write about! I am a massive advocate for wellbeing and mental health, so writing informative and helpful content made me feel like I was truly helping people. I also enjoyed the digital marketing courses and how my ideas were valued and listened to.
I did not have the always have prior knowledge about certain topics and this made writing certain pieces of content more challenging. However, I received a lot of support and persevered to gain knowledge in these areas and produced good content.
I had to complete digital marketing courses prior to the internship, and these provided me with fundamental knowledge about the industry. I am also more confident in my content writing skills and ability and work towards deadlines.
Definitely! I am now even more interested in content writing and marketing than before, and the experience from this internship has really helped me in job applications and interviews for similar positions.
I am interested in a career in content writing/copywriting or marketing.
