Emily Hyman


This summer I have been interning at Schneider Public Relations, a national PR firm in Boston. From the moment I walked into the building, I was immediately accepted as part of the Consumer Team. I was given a desk, a personal email address, and many tasks to get started on. My first major assignment was to make a Media Influencer List for one of the firm’s new major clients, which is a contact list of major editors for certain magazines. It was the first time I’d ever made one so the entire process was such a great learning experience. Every step of the way my mentor was there to answer any of my questions and give me helpful advice. I can't believe that I am already half way done with my third week! Every day taught me something new about public relations and I can honestly say that I was never just sitting at my desk with nothing to do. I was always being challenged and I love everything about my internship experience.
