Having very nearly finished my 5 weeks in Healthcare, I thought I’d pre-empt the standard farewell blog post with some interesting stats and insights about the healthcare industry. These really put into perspective for me what an unimaginably important industry healthcare is (aside from the fact that...

(This blog’s been sat in my draft folder for about four weeks, so a little outdated but nevertheless…) As I write this I’m currently on a train back to the Midlands for some much needed R&R after my last day with Tech. My first stop on the Edel-tour has been fast and often quite crazy...

With the Olympics just around the corner (37 Fridays to be exact…would you believe it?!), it’s a great time to be living and working in London. It’s an even greater time to be working with clients such as UPS who, as an official Olympic sponsor, are heavily involved in the games. As a result...

This week is the seventh annual Get Safe Online week. I’ve been working with the corporate team in the build up to the event, and it’s certainly been an exciting experience! On Monday the Edelman GSOL team attended the Get Safe Online summit event at Portcullis House in Westminster. This in itself...

Once again I have neglected my Grad blog – Polly is putting us all to serious shame!!! At the moment I’m over half way through my second rotatation. First things first, the tech team are not geeks – I just couldn’t think of a good title. During my time on tech I have worked on...

Well, yet another huge congratulations to Edelman…last week we won PR Week’s Large Consultancy of the Year Award 2011. This is a massive deal and an amazing achievement for the whole London team (I wish I’d been around longer so I could pretend to take some credit…but here’s to hoping I’m...

So after 6 wonderful weeks, I have finished my Digital rotation and I am writing this post from my desk in the lovely Healthcare department (more on this later),  but for now I have to try and sum up my time with Digital…not an easy task. I have definitely discovered a passion for social media and...

REFLECTIONS This morning I was asked to describe my time in JCPR in 3-4 words, so this is what I came up with: Cupcakes Champagne Late nights I have spent the last 6 weeks working on various accounts in JCPR, the consumer arm of Edelman. And yes, I have eaten LOTS of cupcakes (and muffins, cheese,...

I can’t quite believe that my first rotation has finished. It seems like yesterday (and not six weeks ago) that we started. The first six weeks have been mental busy. It’s impossible to keep track of everything I’ve learned since starting. My first rotation was Corporate and Financial...
