Testimonials
During my time as an intern, I've learned invaluable insight into the publishing world by being thrown into the deep end. My boss gave me support in helping me get to grips with all the new skills I needed and even helped me make my CV better. I've made lots of new connections on LinkedIn from my internship and I will take everything I've absorbed during these six weeks forward with me, so I can be more ready to jump into my next role.
Joe Rumney,
Marketing Intern
