Pinch me…this cannot be real!
Well it has most certainly been a year to remember. I feel like I’ve come a million miles since this time last year. It’s almost exactly a year ago that I applied to the Edelman Grad Scheme. The weeks seemed to pass in a flash between application form, interview, assessment centre and job offer…all...
A Logistical Dream
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...
Are you a safe surfer?
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...
Thanks Digital, it’s been Spooktacular!
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...
One down, five to go!
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...
What a relief a crisis can be
I headed into Corporate & Finance fully stocked with great experience and geared to work on some of Edelman’s bigger accounts. But this was somewhat a bewildering transition for the last of my graduate placements. Nothing to do with the anxiety that I was on the final leg or the people or the department;...
Fate
It seems weird to write this knowing I have now finished the graduate scheme…it feels like only yesterday that I started, dressed to impress in my finest shirt and skirt! Trying to look confident and assertive, when in fact covering up the nerves which were racing round inside me.  I chose the graduate...
2010 off to a flying start
It has been over a month since my last post, partly due to the festive period but also due to an extremely busy first 3 weeks in my new rotation. I am now in Public Affairs (PA) and really enjoying it! I was very apprehensive going into this hardworking area of the office. I have very little political...
Merry Christmas, Everyone!!
Well it’s my last day before Christmas so I thought I should write a blog post before we all go off on holidays. The office is so empty as so many people have already left. Hopefully the snow and ice will hold off and I will get out off London tomorrow morning, and the country on boxing day. I...
Winter’s drawing in
I cannot believe it already week four with the Corporate team! Now it is going so so fast! before I know it it’s going to be December! Over the past two weeks there has been quite a bit going on over ths side of the office, and time has gone past very rapidly. The Get Safe Online Summit happened...
