Today was my second and last day with Valassis Digital. I started off the day going over all the research I did and finding things to expand upon and clarify. Then for the next couple hours I worked to finish up the spread sheets. My boss scheduled a lunch for all of us in the Business Development Department so food was brought it and we all go the opportunity to sit down and talk about anything. It was very interesting and reassuring to learn the journeys my coworkers went through as well as how much/ how long it took them to realize what they wanted to do as a career. Also it was comforting to learn that your major doesn’t define the career you will go into, as one coworker majored in history and was then a consultant and now works at Valassis Digital. After lunch I had completed all my designated work so I got to do research about social influencers and the companies that manage and connect social influencers to the company trying to promote the product. It was a nice experience having a coworker give me and trust me to do completely new work just like in a real job. It was also so rewarding seeing my work be used in a professional manner. This experience was great and although working with Dragonwing was awesome, I appreciate that it gave a more realistic look at a sort of job I might have in the future.
