We let intern Sofie share her internship experience at JustBite:
The search for an internship during COVID-19 seemed like a big challenge until I contacted JustBite. Phew! Kevin was able to offer me an internship position and provide guidance. After a nice welcome package and introduction, I was completely ready to dive in. Today, two and a half months later, the internship has ended.
Every week I got to know JustBite better and better. During the past period, I learned a lot about the behind-the-scenes operations of JustBite. Furthermore, I had the chance to learn about SEO & SEA, Facebook advertising, email marketing, and so on. Kevin also gave me access to an online digital marketing course.
Projects were planned and tracked via an online ‘board’. Besides the projects proposed by Kevin, I was also allowed to suggest projects I wanted to work on. So it was definitely an internship with a varied range of tasks!
During this period, it was a challenge to work from home every day. We never even met in person. Because of this, I learned to work independently, although I sometimes missed the social contact with colleagues.
Every morning we held a team call so everyone was up to date on each other's projects. It was also interesting to exchange ideas with the other interns about projects so we could hear each other's perspectives and learn from one another. Additionally, there was a fixed weekly individual follow-up meeting scheduled with Kevin. In between, Kevin was always available for questions or feedback. It was nice that the input from the interns was always taken into account, making you feel valued as an intern.
