also understand a lot more about museums now and will look at them differently. I’m glad I’m able to test out career options, and this field really requires experience.

Classlist is a small company that provides an alternative online

communications platform for school parents. The Classlist

Social Media and Communications Internship was a flexible

position, where the tasks are tailored to the expertise of the

specific candidate. I had shown interest and prior experience

in video editing and production, so my primary role was to

create short-medium-length videos for the company. These

videos covered a range of purposes, from marketing and advertising videos to guided

walkthroughs of new app features. As well as creating videos, I wrote blog articles, bug-tested

app updates and provided valuable research and analysis into the company’s potential

competitors and partners.

Aside from one week of in-person work at the start of the internship, I worked from home. This

was suitable since my work was mostly independent (recording and editing videos, writing

articles, etc). Classlist is a small company (~20 employees), so while I was only really in frequent

direct contact with the few people involved in marketing and competition, I was able to get a

good feel for how the entire company operated and what everyone else’s job involved. This

also meant that job roles were more open, as fewer people were available to cover the wide

variety of tasks than in a large corporation with dedicated departments. This enabled me to

experience the breadth of different tasks and projects that the internship offered.
