My internship experience with 914INC-Westchester Magazine gave me an excellent opportunity to publish meaningful work, build a portfolio of content, and discover more about the publishing...
Internship:
Semester:
Summer 2022
Description

This summer I built a portfolio of professionally written articles covering Westchester County’s business activities and lifestyle and performed outreach projects within two departments for content creation. I also served as a liaison between three editorial staff members on research, writing, communications, and Excel data management for Westchester Magazine and business-to-business lifestyle publication, 914INC. Some projects I worked on included organizing content for the 914INC Best of Business feature for the September/October issue and writing eight articles under both publications. I was also able to complete several learning goals I set out for myself at the beginning of the internship which will make me a more well-rounded job candidate for the future. The goals I had set for myself are outlined below:

  • Develop inter-personal skills by connecting with community via email, phone, and interviews
  • Receive masthead credit for written articles that engages local community and expands personal portfolio of work
  • Improve editing and proofreading abilities for different topics/types of articles
