My first day at WAA was pretty busy. A new mobile phone pitch had come in and everyone was working really hard to meet the deadline, with the creative team working over the weekend to come up with some really great ideas. Because I was part of the target market for the pitch, I could give comments on what the creative team were doing and contribute my own input.

The pace hasn’t really slowed since then! Whilst here, I’ve mainly been helping the client services team with whatever they need. I’ve been involved in so many different things, it’s impossible to get bored! This means I’ve now got a really good understanding of what everybody’s role is, and it has helped me to decide what I want to do after my time here.

The team at WAA really feels like a community, at the end of the week the team catches up with “The week that was”. This is a discussion that takes place with all the staff, where they tell everyone what new projects they are working on and new developments that have occurred. This really great way of making sure everyone is on the same page, and is a great morale booster for everyone.

They also hold regular briefings on new trends and overviews on new media, which I’ve found really interesting. My time here at WAA has been fantastic, I’ve learnt so much in a short space of time. The atmosphere is great and everyone here is really friendly and welcoming; I would recommend work experience here to anyone looking to get into the marketing and advertising industry.
