Best Marketing Internship Program: Reflection of an Intern

A good analogy to understand what this internship is like is to think of learning in school as learning the recipe for how to do something and understanding the why behind it. On the other hand, getting real-life experience is like trying out the recipe and going through trial and error to see what works and what does not.

In other words, learning in school provides foundational and theoretical understanding. On the contrary, real-life experience allows you to apply that knowledge and see how it plays out in practice. It is essential to have both types of learning in order to understand a concept or be skilled.

Hi, I am Vee, a Senior Marketing Student in Thailand, who was born and raised in Cambodia. I will guide you through the Best Marketing Internship Program experience here at Seven Peaks Software.

Although I have studied marketing as my major, there are still many aspects that continue to surprise me as I gain real-life experience in the field. This is what I learned from the Digital Marketing Internship at Seven Peaks Software.

Why Seven Peaks?

In my exploration of the best marketing internship program, I conducted research on potential companies that can provide me with constructive professional experience for my future career. Then, I came across Seven Peaks on LinkedIn and immediately dove into researching the company profile further.

Out of all the companies I considered applying to, Seven Peaks stood out the most due to the valuable experience I knew I could gain during the internship and the diverse, multicultural environment it offered. The company’s mission, values, and focus on innovation also align with my personal goals and interests, making it a practical fit for me.
