Diary of an Intern- Day 11

Day 11 and I feel I am well and truly settled in, have been kept very busy over the last few days, helping Narinder and Kat research and compile information for the companions nominations. 

I have also written a guest piece for managementsushi.com on the value of internships with particular focus on the value in a 2.0 world, a debate which is picking up momentum in the UK now after Seth Godin kicked it all of with his blog about free work vs. internships.  I have found it interesting to see how the use of social media to create a digital footprint can be a massive help to graduates looking for jobs as it is completely free and is a tangible example of ones work.  It is particularly useful as future employers can find these if they Google you, something employers are increasingly keen on doing to learn more about candidates. 

This afternoon Adi and I will be venturing into Covent Garden to shoot a video, asking people what they think makes a good manager, this will be posted at a later stage, hopefully some point this week, on our youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/cmimanagers
