Internships are a big part of the student experience! ✨ Our student, Clarissa Junia Ramli, is currently interning at GLOO PR, a Public Relations Agency specialising in creating news and stories for tech, gaming, and corporate clients. Read on as she shares more on her internship!
“When I was offered a position at GLOO PR, I was really excited about it as the position allows me to be creative in my writing. As a PR Intern, I do research on the clients’ new products and then write media invites, media pitch notes and press releases. In addition, I go online to monitor the media and produce daily coverage reports for the clients I’m assigned to. When we have press conferences, I help in arranging the media attendance and also submit flash/round-up reports.
We also constantly call and email the media, convincing them to come over for events, and then build relationships with them there (especially if you’re new to the industry). I see this as an opportunity to really work on my communication skills and finding new ways to connect with people.
Personally, I feel that the biggest reward of working in PR is seeing the story you built for your clients gaining strong media interest and then the day after a product launch, you see it spreading on the Internet and report the good news to the client!”
