Being an intern at Lee Media Group has been the best job a 17-year-old could ask for. Learning about building and maintaining websites, analytics and working in a professional environment surrounded by six experienced ladies (and Sparky) who all know exactly what they’re doing, was pretty intimidating at first. I was scared that I would break something, or not do it the right way, but everyone was patient in helping me learn the ropes. I feel like I’ve settled in well.
When I called the first time, I never thought I would actually be hired. Morgan informed me that they would be interested in seeing my resume and I met with Mia later that week. She showed me around and in a couple weeks I was in an office. I had to go across the building to bother ask Tabytha about WordPress questions because I was pretty far away in the “party hallway” with Dani and Kelsey. Now that I think of it, these ladies actually do know how to party. I’m a little sad I was so shy at our open house.
I do many different small tasks at Lee Media Group. The only job that never seems to be finished is updates. My job of doing updates for 60+ websites feels like an uphill battle. I’m glad to do it though, because it saves Ashleigh some time that she desperately needs. It also gives me a peek into how all of our websites are structured, which is fun. The longer I work here, the better I get at taking some monotonous tasks away from everyone.
I’ve learned so much here, and I keep learning new things every week. Lee Media Group is one of the best things to ever happen to me, and I hope to work here for quite a while.
We love having you work with us at Lee Media Group, Kiehn!
I’m glad you’re enjoying the job. Still giggling about “party hallway.” Makes me wonder what y’all do when I’m not around. Also, go easy on the pens from now on, Godzilla.
Aww, I’m kind of disappointed I don’t get to be in the “party hallway” too.
I think I just shed a tear from this. 🙂 Glad to be working with you Kiehn.
