5 months, 16 weeks, 112 days, 2,688 hours, 161,280 minutes, 9,676,800 seconds. That is the duration of my affiliation with GetCre8ive Corporation. With a total of 600 internship hours, I learned a lot, I found a family, I found mentors and I saw my growth.
Allow me to take you back on my GetCre8ive Journey.
When we were asked to find a company to apply for our internship, GetCre8ive Corporation was the only company where I submitted my application. Thank God, I got accepted.
Before I submitted my application to GetCre8ive, I started to prepare myself for the work setup as if I was already in the Industry. As part of my preparation, I had printed weekly calendars that I posted in my study corner to help me to prepare for the following days and so that I could have a record of the things I've accomplished. One of my weaknesses was having to wake up early in the morning. It was a struggle to begin with but as days have passed, I had overcome it.
My day usually begins at 8:30AM, preparing myself for the 9:00AM check-in call - GCC’s morning routine in which we do attendance and share our goals for the day. In that sense, as we start our day, we are directed towards our goal. With this preparation, we were able to manage our tasks smoothly. We became responsible and sensitive towards finishing our work and hitting the deadline or even being ahead of schedule.
In my stay at GetCre8ive, I am proud to say that I have completed a total of four (4) Certification courses from HubSpot: Inbound Certified, Digital Marketing Certified, Social Media Certified, and SEO Certified. Immensely, I learned a lot about Inbound Marketing, and how to use social media effectively in order to turn your leads to customers. In the past months, I had done a lot of work and gained additional knowledge which I can definitely use in the near future—from content planning for GetCre8ive’s social media to the editing publication materials for various content and holidays for the month. I had made a lot of marketing emails and materials promoting our events. To name a few of the many, I helped in promoting Inbound 2021, Adobe Max, Adobe Sign, Adobe Stock, the GetCre8ive Database Cleanup, GROW ANZ, HUG Manila Meetups, and GetCre8ive's socials to the company's current and future customers.
Because of my internship experience, I am now more passionate about doing marketing emails. I can say I love it. [laughs] Aside from editing marketing emails, I had also pitched in my unique ideas and suggestions in our weekly Spark hour where we finalize the social media content to be posted for the week. Lastly, we end the month with a bang! The most awaited day of the month is our Game Night. It’s our time to celebrate a job well done and to also release stress from all the ups and downs we had encountered along the way.
What I love most about GetCre8ive is how they treat their interns and employees with utmost respect. We are treated as a family. There are a lot of companies out there bigger than GetCre8ive but I can tell you that if you are eyeing for a healthy and fun workspace in which there is room for growth and improvement, then you are in the right place.
CREATE. GROW. LEAD.
Thank you, GetCre8ive Corporation!
