How it all happened




Hello everyone,

My name is Alexandra and I am a second year business management student at Glasgow Caledonian University. You might all be wondering why I am writing this blog about an internship in Boston? Well, the third year of my degree consists of a yearlong placement, and through this blog I want to share my experience with you.

Through the first semester of second year I worked to improve my resumé and cover letter to get every chance on my side. After looking at the different possibilities that were suggested to me, I became convinced that the placement in Boston was the one that I felt most suited me. 
So here I was looking at job descriptions for internships at Northeastern University and creating a CV YouTube video to apply for the internships on offer.

Then came the time of the Skype interview which, though it was scary in a way, was actually one of the best experience I could have asked for, as I wasn’t sure of what I should expect. Then the email telling me the outcome arrived, and I could not have been more overwhelmed. I was the happiest I have been in a long time.

I am now in the preparation stage of this new adventure in Massachusetts.



Thank you for joining this exciting adventure in Boston over the next year and a half, I will be back soon with news on what is next up!

Alexandra
