\"\"Senior marketing major Carol Queiroz from Brazil recently completed a rewarding internship at Imaginuity, a marketing agency based in Dallas. Her experiences during this internship have not only enhanced her skill set but also prepared her for future career opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Carol’s internship at Imaginuity was part of a rotational program, allowing her to gain hands-on experience in various departments. Throughout her time there, she explored areas such as social media, user experience, website creation, and client partnership. This exposure to diverse aspects of marketing provided her with a well-rounded understanding of the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of Carol’s favorite aspects of the internship was building website pages. This opportunity allowed her to combine her creative skills in content creation with the technical skills required for website development. She relished the chance to see her ideas come to life in a digital format, reinforcing her passion for marketing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Carol said that learning to be adaptable was one of the greatest lessons she gained from her internship. She learned that even in areas where she initially had little interest, there were valuable insights and skills to be gained. This lesson in flexibility is one she believes will serve her well in her future career.<\/span><\/p>\n

Interning at Imaginuity has opened numerous doors for Carol. The diverse experiences she gained will enable her to apply for various job opportunities after graduation, equipped with a unique skill set that few candidates possess. While she has been encouraged to apply for a full-time position at Imaginuity, Carol has also been accepted into a master\u2019s program in communication at ACU, which she is excited to pursue.<\/span><\/p>\n

For students seeking internships, Carol offers some sage advice: \u201cGo to the career fair! I got my job there. Also, talk to Jasmine as much as possible. She is a good resource to help with your resume and job search.\u201d She also recommends building a network on campus and maintaining relationships with professors which can open unexpected opportunities in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Carol credits her time at ACU as essential preparation for her internship and future endeavors. The Professional Development team, in particular, has been instrumental in her journey, providing support and resources throughout her college years.<\/span><\/p>\n

Being a business major at ACU has not only equipped Carol with technical knowledge but also essential life skills. She values the lessons in negotiation, networking, and entrepreneurship that she has gained, stating, \u201cThis knowledge is something that no one can take away from me and something that I will carry with me for life. I am very grateful to have received all of this at COBA.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

As graduation approaches, Carol reflects on her three years at ACU with gratitude. Her advice to current students is to savor every moment of their journey. \u201cThe whole process you\u2019re going through on campus is preparing you for life off campus,\u201d she emphasizes.<\/span><\/p>\n

With her newfound skills and experiences, Carol is well-prepared to take on the next chapter of her life, whether in a full-time role or as a graduate student. Imaginuity has played a pivotal role in shaping her future, and she looks forward to what lies ahead.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
