Hello all!
My name is Sam Laverty and
I’m a junior in the D&M program, here at Drexel. I was on coop Fall/Winter
and I’m now back in classes. Why am I posting on here you ask? Well, a few days
before the term began I decided to apply for an internship at Free People. The
application process took about a week and a half but I am happy to say I am now
the new Free People Public Relations Intern!
This past week (week 3) was
my first week. I work three days a week and have class the other two days,
along with a night class on one of the workdays. Needless to say, I’m pretty
busy. However, my first week went really smoothly. I was initially a little worried
if I could handle everything and make the timing work, but it all went well.
So my first day was Tuesday,
April 16th and of course my biggest worry, as any D&M would say,
was what to wear. Free People is hands down my favorite brand and I’ve always
dreamed of working for them so this opportunity is unbelievable and very
exciting.
When I first arrived at the
Naval yard I was in love with all of the buildings. The décor is amazing and so
true to brand. There are so many beautiful things to look at I was trying to
soak them all in. I met my team, all of which are so nice and welcoming, and
right away was asked to sit in on a little team meeting. Listening to them
discuss things to do with the week was very interesting and I know I have a lot
to learn from each of them. After that, the week consisted of learning
operational things, like online programs and office layout.
I’m so excited to see what
else is in store and how this opportunity will blossom into a sure to be
amazing experience.
