Howdy blog! It has been an exciting semester
so far. I have completed almost all my midterms (one more left in my operations
management class) and have gotten excellent grades and enjoyed the
material.
Now is the time to look at schedules and
classes offered for the spring semester. While looking at how many courses I
have left to take for my last three semesters of college ( only three…..
that was surreal to type out), I realized I need to add a few more classes to
meet the minimum requirement of courses per semester. For reference, at this
current moment, I am a double major in communications and public relations with
minors in marketing and social media. After thinking about what I could move
around and realizing I have really enjoyed the marketing classes I have taken
and am currently in, I have decided to bump my marketing minor to a major and
add a leadership minor. So then, I would be a triple major in communications, public
relations and marketing with minors in leadership and social media. Try to say
all of those five times fast. With adding a major in marketing, I will have to
have a marketing internship to graduate, so I have searched for different
opportunities in that field.
It is a little soon to be on the hunt for
internships, but I have found a few and have applied. The first one is
Huntington Bank in Columbus, Ohio, for a marketing and communications
internship. The second is with Cardinal Health for their marketing internship.
I get excited about the opportunity to intern with a company after researching
them a ton and figuring out who had the internship last summer, their company
morale, etc. Cardinal Health’s CEO Mike Kaufmann was an ONU business alum and
he recently spoke to students in the college about Cardinal Health and being a
CEO. It was impactful. When researching after the presentation, I only saw a
marketing internship. I figured I was not qualified enough, but after switching
my majors and minors around, I feel like getting my feet wet in the marketing
world with Cardinal Health would be a rewarding opportunity. You can feel their
culture through their web presence and Mr. Kaufmann’s presence.
In short, that is a life update from me.
Hopefully, in a few more blog posts I share, I got an interview for any one of
those marketing internships.
Those internships sound like a great opportunity! Would love to hear more about those as they progress!
