What they think

Intern Testimonies

Hear from our interns over the years.

"Working at a startup gave me a lot of firsts, and had me push myself in areas I didn't really focus on before. It showed me the importance of possessing strong soft skills that would help me much more than I could've imagined. I improved greatly in problem solving, conflict resolution and negotiation, as well as public speaking in the form of presentations. Working in such an environment was very stressful and difficult at times, but I'm really grateful I was given the opportunity to have this experience and learn from it."

Being a WMA intern was a valuable experience as I learned a lot, both soft and technical skills. Throughout the year, I was given the opportunity to strengthen my teamwork and communication skills. Also, I was challenged and pushed in new ways, such as gathering raw data and translating that information into an e-book. Overall, I am extremely grateful for this internship program and the lessons I have learned over the year!

My experience as WMA intern was perfect! As a marketing intern I got to enhance my digital marketing skills. This included creating and editing content for all social media platforms. On top of that, I have learned to make data driven decisions, by analyzing data on our posts and our ads on social media. This includes Facebook Ads and Google Ads, as well as LogRocket. Our main project has been the Atila Schools and Jobs Report. This allowed me to step in content marketing, where I became an author and editor. I have seen this product through from the beginning to where we are now! On top of this, my manager has been helping me learn basic coding. This includes front-end as well as basic Java, React and HTML.

As an intern I developed social media marketing campaigns to raise awareness to the company’s mission of helping the poor in the London community and target a younger age demographic. I secured a partnership with a club at western to promote sustainable fashion. Through this, we recruited students to model the store’s clothes and released a fashion lookbook to the student body. It was an amazing experience and so thrilling to see our hard work pay off!

I played a role helping redesign their shopify website, regularly making product and seasonal updates to the website and also helped them move inventory to their new warehouse. I also helped create a new inventory system that was more efficient and quality checked their existing product pages for mistakes in the description, photos, etc.
