Emily's Digital Marketing Internship with The Stationary Office -- Week 1

Week 1: 28/5/12 - 1/6/12

"My first day included a warm welcome from the Marketing team with mini inductions, some of the team explaining their job roles. My Manager gave me an overview of the company and they took me out to lunch four times in the first week. My first task was to redesign some buttons for the Driving Standards Agency website. This was really exciting as I spent my second day sketching which is one of my favourite things to do.

Another design task was to design a new logo for a website that has not been created yet, ‘Safe driving for life’ and these ideas were presented to the driving standards agency and I hope they like them.

It’s a very social environment and I feel I am really valued. I have been introduced to the importance of Twitter for a Business and getting to know TSO’s clients.

I have fitted in really well here as I have been looking for a team environment to work in for a long time now. I am even lucky enough to be working in Illustrator CS5 and it has been put on my computer fairly swiftly for me to use. All work obviously gets triple checked, as it is a Government organisation, which is great and very professional. One of the best things about working here that I am being given proper training on software that I would like to use in the future. The only problem now is…….I don’t want to leave."
