A week in NY taught me to grow

So New York last month was amazing. I had such a fantastic time in the city that I almost didn't come back home. At times I wish I had stayed, however, I know that in the end I'll rise up stronger and wiser than I did before.

I learned a lot of professional things while I was in New York at the 70th annual National Broadcasting Society Convention.

1. Social media is really relative to how well you can do in business and how you showcase yourself and your talents and if you wouldn't want your employer to see it then don't post it.

2. You should also let your work speak for you when you can't be there to speak for yourself.

3. Have a resume and a business card, and if at all possible a cd/dvd of the things you've done.

4. Get creative.

5. When applying for internships remember that even if its not in the department you want, if you put a lot of effort into it like staying late and always saying yes (within reason of course) as well as having a positive attitude your more likely to get offered a position as well as having positive recognition at other businesses.

5. Have a blog, website, or youtube account with web produced shows.

These are just some of the things that I learned while at the NBS convention last month. I can't wait for next years convention. I'll be posting the pictures of my trip sometime tomorrow so watch for those!

If anyone has any questions/comments leave 'em below! I'd be happy to answer them all! :) I'm currently working on a weekly youtube idea as well as designing a new web layout for this blog!

Happy Wednesday!
