From JCPR, I was thrust into the world of Public Affairs. It seems that 5 weeks (the length of a single grad rotation) is exactly the amount of time needed to get to know people and settle in to a department, so every new rotation feels like a bit of wrench from what has become somewhat familiar! But...

The start of the New Year has seen all the grads move departments to embark on rotation number four. For me, it’s time to hit the digital department, and I’m very much looking forward to the next five weeks. When we started at Edelman, much of our training focussed on the importance of social media....

So it’s the end of another rotation and the whole of 2011. I can hardly believe that us grads are half way through the program, it is absolutely flying by, but I guess that means we must be having fun along the way. I finish my stint in JCPR today and it’s been a hectic but really enjoyable 5 weeks....

EDELMAN CHRISTMAS Being mid-way through our Graduate Scheme, what better way to celebrate our survival than immersing ourselves full-pelter into all of the office Christmas Cheer! As I sit and write this post, there is ‘White Christmas’ being played throughout the office, fake snow hanging...

Well it may be too little to late (considering I left 4 weeks ago) but I’ve been meaning to add my thoughts about my time in Healthcare to the blog for too long. It was the Edelman Christmas Party last night (more on that later) so I’m feeling a little fragile sohave decided to write this post in...

Whilst working for the lovely tech team, I’ve done a fair amount of work for LinkedIn. It’s an account which I’ve found really interesting and I think so many people out there could benefit from a lesson in the effective use of the networking site. Here are just a few facts I’ve learned about...

This really interesting thought piece fell into my lap at work. The agency Euro RSCG has produced ‘The Big Little Book of Nexts’ which outlines what (in their opinion) will be trending in 2012 from Fahion to PR to Education to Social Media to Africa to Colour and so on and so on… Click here...

So when I applied to Edelman, I gained a position on their 2011 Graduate Scheme, but with the rising cost of going to university and constant difficulty for young people to find jobs, Edelman is taking a big step in a positive direction by changing up their employment process with the introduction of...

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...

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...
