Making a difference in Healthcare
And so another one bites the dust! Four rotations down, two more to go. The finishing line is in sight. Yet again, it’s been a learning curve five weeks, working in an environment completely separate in terms of specialty and overall culture. For one thing, it is incredibly female dominated. No wonder...
Jumping into a World of Politics: A Must for a Graduate
Coming to public affairs with very little experience in this field, I thought my background in PR would see me through, but it was certainly a jump right in at the deep end. They always say a challenge brings out the best in people, and I guess this is exactly what the graduate programme is all about. Remember...
The World of Digital: Don’t Listen to the Stereotype
So I thought I was pretty set after my time at JCPR, but oh how I was proved wrong.  Well I guess that’s the point of the graduate scheme – to explore new departments which you wouldn’t have contemplated on liking, only to find out that you in fact love them. I’ll say it…I’ve been converted...
To Tweet Or Not To Tweet?!
Are you an avid Twitterer? Do you regularly tweet your thoughts whether they are mundane or extraordinary? If so, then you will fit in perfectly inside the wonderful world of Edelman. As for myself, I have a Twitter account which I have always used however somewhat haphazardly. Mostly because I am a...
Last month countdown
Very shamefully I have not written a post since just before Christmas, but only because it’s just been so busy here! The fantastic news is that I’ve been offered a position in the Corporate department, which I am so excited about. I’ve just got to finish off my last rotation in Digital...
On the home run
It’s the middle of March, and we are now well into our final rotations. I’ve just returned from holiday so I need to get tis blog up to date. The weeks with the PA team passed extremely fast but the work was extremely interesting – I was given some projects to get my teeth into as well...
2 blogs in one rotation!!
Wow, my second blog in this rotation, I have excelled myself. Today the sun is deceiving and it is absolutely freezing and the lifts are broken (rant over). Well I have been in the corporate team for five weeks now. It feels very strange sitting up in this end of the office! An absolute highlight of...
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...
Hello 2010!
Well shamefully this is my first blog for two months, and somewhat ironically I failed to blog during my rotation with the Digital department, probably because I was having too much fun! As I explained in my last blog, I was somewhat aprehensive about life in Digital, especially considering that I cannot...
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...
