We are excited to see everyone at our in-person event on Wednesday, Dec. 8! Students will have the chance to connect with interns and employers, learn about specific internships and receive Pro Events credit. Here is a preview about our fall 2021 students and their internships. I hope you enjoy the School of Business and Economics Internship Expo!

HOMETOWN Crandon, Wis.

ORGANIZATION Boys & Girls Club of Portage County Stevens Point, Wis. TITLE PR & Marketing Intern

What I did: While at my internship, I was able to work on a variety of different things. Some of the things included were social media posts, monthly newsletters, campaigns, emails, etc. I was able to help with events and fundraisers and even got to take part in the Giving Tuesday campaign. I created emails, social media posts and videos for the campaign and am so happy to be able to have helped raise almost $4,000 to put toward the Teen Center. What I liked: I really enjoyed my internship through the Boys & Girls Club. Mikayla Kleifgen (SBE alumna) was a great mentor and so nice to work with. I was able to learn so many things while there and got an insight of the impact marketing can have. I was able to give my input on many things and felt like a part of the team. Future Dream Job: My dream would be to work for a non-profit to help impact and grow the community I am in. I loved my time at the BGC and hope to continue a job there in the future.

What I did: My main roles were to open accounts as well as complete the necessary paperwork to transfer assets and fund the accounts. I was also in tasked with preparing documents to be presented by the advisors to clients. What I liked: The thing I liked most about the internship was when the experienced advisors would ask my opinion about how they should advise clients. The advisors would give me time to come up with a plan which I would then present to the advisors. After that, the advisors would critique my suggestions before ultimately telling me what the advised the client to do. This was a learning experience that would be impossible to replicate in a classroom setting. Each case was unique and required time to formulate a plan. This internship did have days where it was a lot of paperwork. However, by doing the paperwork I was able to develop a deeper understanding of all the work that goes on behind the scenes of a financial service firm. Future Dream Job: I am still unsure about what my dream job is. I am moving to China in a few months and plan on staying there for multiple years. In that time, I might discover new interests and talents that will completely change what I want to do for my career. However, as of now I would want to be a financial planner. I think that it is a rewarding job and has a real impact on the lives of clients.
