the internship seeking activities you are doing
Keeping eyes and ears open for other internship work but mostly just following through on the two internships I have now.
the internship work you are doing
Most of the work I’ve been doing this week has been communication with clients to receive more information; clarify details and get ready for product launch on one end while just starting the other.
the experiences you are having
Made a plan and scheduled out the remaining assignments in the semester; hope to check in with Tammy and tie any loose ends that need straightening out.
mini tutorials or examples of work you did
This week was mainly consulting with clients on the work needed to be done and how to transfer files; this can especially be challenging in the remote era we live in. In the case of my first internship project, I was able to get by with the photos and resources made already for previous websites and Facebook. For this next one, we’ve looked into various methods of filesharing for when files are just too large/cumbersome to send over email.
If you’re in the same predicament, you should check out:
- Dropbox – Dropbox
- Google Drive – Google
- OneDrive – Microsoft
- Creative Cloud File Sharing – Adobe
- Amazon Drive – Amazon
There are many services out there that can prove useful for these specific tasks. It largely depends on the content you are transferring, and also what your client already is equipped to manage. You don’t have to have an account for each of the services listed above, but it may be beneficial to have more than one set up already. Personally I would recommend OneDrive and Google Drive. The reasoning involved here is that OneDrive is often activated in the process of setting up a Windows 10 computer, so there’s a good chance they already are signed into that service and can begin to utilize it right away. For communication with clients that own a Mac, I would recommend Google Drive as it is cross-platform friendly and only requires a web browser to access.
