My internship experience at Haworth helped me gain a strong understanding of all aspects involved in delivering digital advertising campaigns. It's noticeable from the first day that everyone here wants to see you succeed. I was teamed up with not only some of the most supportive people I've met but also some of the most welcoming making it a pleasure to work each day. Throughout this time, I was able to develop a valuable foundation in digital advertising that helped reinforce my interest in the intersection of marketing & media and overall made me feel more confident and comfortable in my role here at Haworth.
