I really valued the industry. Marketing was always an interest of mine, but seeing the recent trend of influencer marketing I was able to gain a high understanding of this new age of marketing.
What I wish was different
Nothing! I was provided a mentor with an abundance of information and answers to all my questions.
Advice
Business development brainstorming occurred each week. Many ideas were thrown out, but more importantly I learned that not every idea is a home-run. Hearing the CEO/ Founder effectively play devils advocate to the ideas enabled his team to open their logical minds and pursue rational approaches.

Social Media Intern
May 2021 • Westerly, RI
What I liked
Interning for A-List Me as a social media intern was an amazing experience! I really enjoyed working with the A-list Me team and getting a deeper understanding of how social media influencers promote brands or services. I liked learning how social media is used in a business setting and how influencers earn an income through brand deals.
What I wish was different
There is nothing that I wish was different about this internship experience. David and the rest of the A-List Me team are extremely helpful and supportive. If I ever had a question or concern they were quick to help and guide me throughout my internship experience.
Advice
One piece of advice I would like to share about this experience is to work hard and ask questions. Social media/ influencer marketing is not something learned through a college course therefore it is important to ask questions to understand how the industry works. I also recommend staying on top of social media trends and having a general understanding about how all social media platforms work.
