The assessment day in London went fairly well. We were placed into small groups and given a client to create a pitch for. As the day progressed we were given updates and had to rework our pitch to accommodate them. I had lots of great, creative ideas but since public speaking isn’t my strongest point I’m not too sure how I did.
During the day we all had a quick interview with one of the staff, which I quite enjoyed. I talked about all the things I got up to at Concept Communications last summer and the PR campaign I put together for Mogul Magazine. We were also set the task of writing a press release in thirty minutes and creating a small list of media to send it to. Annoyingly I completely forgot to make the media list, but I was quite proud of my press release so hopefully that will even things out.
I find out if I’m through to the final interview round sometime during the next two weeks. Unfortunately the final interview is scheduled for the day I fly to Nice. So if I’m lucky enough to get an interview I will have to cancel or modify my holiday dates.
