The reflection on the internship in PCNE

After the internship at PCNE, it's time to reflect on myself.

1. My engagement at PCNE
I was working at the Marketing Department in PCNE. My routine works are:

• Editing and uploading TV programmes on the website of Phoenix CNE via FTP server
• Managing official social media of Phoenix CNE, i.e. Facebook and Sina Weibo
• Making the subtitile for a talk show at PCNE
• Making the new TV programme timetable and adjusting the recording time of TV programmes every month.
• Plane events and the slogan for 'Miss Chinese Cosmos Pageant' European region. 
• Did marketing research of the potential audience for PCNE TV Station

2. What I learnt at PCNE
First of all, I practiced my professional skills such as editing videos and making subtitles. Secondly, I learnt how to do marketing research and online survey efficiently.Thirdly, I became more careful and strict to time. Last but not least, I always reflect on myself after the internship at PCNE.

Here is some simple thoughts about my reflection on the internship experience at PCNE.

Reflection on my idea career paths and what I did for them

Rhys once talked about career management in the class. After the class,  I'm always thinking about my career management and career path. Here are my reflections and thoughts.

There are 3 career paths I am interested in:

1. An editor in a fashion magazine such as ELLE or Vogue.

2. A job in a marketing or public relationship department in Unilever or L'oreal.

3. A journalist in Phoniex TV station.

What I prepared for these job paths?

1. An editor in a fashion magazine

I did an ICP research about Hearst China, which owned China ELLE in summer holiday. After this research, I know the history of  China ELLE, how they recruit staff and the way they work.  After I came to King's College London, I chose the aesthetic economy & aesthetic market and fashion culture & society as my optional modules. I also applied for the 2012 trainee management programme of Hearst China. Although I even did not get an opportunity to attend the interview, at least I tried. I can try it again in 2013.

2. A job in a marketing or public relationship department in Unilever or L'oreal.

I collected information about the Unilever or L'oreal. I got to know there is a China programme in Unilever  every year. Those who are able to enter this programme will be trained in London for one year, then they will go to China for work. I  registered  this programme online to know what I should do during the application process. I am going to apply for this programme after graduation at KCL.

3. A journalist in Phoniex TV station.

I applied for an internship position at Phoenix Europe last November. I went there twice for interviews at both marketing and news department in last November and December. This Monday, I e-mailed the HR manager to ask the decision for the internship position. She said she had to discuss with team leaders and would reply me by this week. Today, I received an e-mail from her. Because the interviews were several days ago, the team leaders want to have a short chat with me as an interview again. Wish me a good luck: )

I prepared for all these three career paths. I hope I can find out which career path  is  most suitable for me after my graduation. During the year at King's, I will do an intern within these career paths. In the next 5 years, I hope to do an job within my idea career path. As all career paths do not have a long history in China, I hope I can be a professional in one of the fields in the next 20 years.

I think my plans are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and timed.
