Confessions of an Intern

JennaMy name is Jenna and I am a Communications major at University of Delaware. I have only been working at The Byne Group for a few weeks but I have already learned a lot. For most college students like myself, it is hard to acquire a first internship. And as many of you know in order to get an internship you have to have “previous experience.” It is really hard to have previous experience if no one will hire you. When going on interviews for internship positions one of the most important parts of the interview is to be prepared. Here are 5 important questions that you should be equipped to answer during an interview that will help you stand out from your peers:
1. Tell me about yourself?
2. What are your strengths and weaknesses?
3. Why do you want to intern at this company?
4. Why/How did you choose your major?
5. What are your career goals?

Here a few things I am going to do before my internship ends:
1. Ask for a letter of recommendation for future jobs.
2. Make copies or take files of any work I’ve done at this job
3. Ask for feedback, in what ways did I meet your expectations and how could I have done better?
4. Gather contact information from the people I have worked with and connect with them on social media.
5. Make sure to say thank you to everyone I have worked with.

During my internship at The Byne Group I have learned so much about the advertising world. I will be able to take everything I learned here and apply it to my studies at school and future jobs. Thank you to everyone at The Byne Group for making my time here extremely enjoyable.

Adventures of The Byne Group Intern

Hello everyone! I'm back!

Since I last blogged The Byne Group has kept me very busy. I've worked on such a wide array of different projects. Over the last few days I have been working on flyers for a local charity, made a few changes on a logo I've designed for an insurance company, designed a whole invitation package for a banquet event, and was on the set of a photo shoot.

Being on the set of a photo shoot is so exciting! There is so much that goes into taking a picture it's insane. All the equipment has to be set up just right, the model has to be sitting at the right angle, and the weather needs to be cooperating to get that "picture perfect" picture. It was really interesting to see the process of making that perfect picture.

This photo is from one of the shoots I was on for United Hospice of Rockland.

Back to work!

Meet The Byne Group Intern

DanaTandoi

Hi everyone! I am Dana, the new intern at The Byne Group. Currently I am a Senior at SUNY Purchase where I am studying Graphic Design.

I have only been here two weeks, but have noticed that being in the working world is slightly different than being at art school. For one, I have yet to walk in and find someone sleeping at their desk from the night before. Also, design work goes in and out of the office in about two or three days. At school it’s more like six or seven weeks.

Despite the differences, I love my internship at The Byne Group just as much as being at school. They have truly welcomed me and made me feel part of their "group."

Good Campaigns Make You Think, But Great Campaigns Make You Feel

I had the privilege of attending the Thinking Creatively conference at Kean University with our amazing design team last Friday. It was a great experience, and no, it wasn't because I had a day away from the office.

It was because it was a day for us to learn from all the great speakers how to do what we do, but even better. With the deadlines and responsibilities on our plates each day, it would be far easier to say we don't have the time to take an entire day to stop everything we're doing and go to a conference on thinking creatively. But that's one of the qualities...
