Financial & Professional Services Intern
Instinctif
SPRING 2020 | London, UK
During my time studying abroad in London with James Madison University, I took the opportunity to intern with Instinctif, a communications firm in the heart of London’s financial district. I worked mainly with the Financial & Professional Services team but was exposed to other teams within the company as well. It was a great experience working with the company and I found myself quickly acclimating to the British work culture. During my time I joined the social committee which was a great way to meet employees from other teams but also leave a greater impact. Unfortunately due to the Covid-19 pandemic I was sent home early and unable to complete my internship but the connections and experience I made motivared me to pursue a master’s degree abroad, there’s always a silver lining!
