For my final project assignment,
I had to interview a company working in the field of communications. My group
and I decided to interview the company Brandreclame. Brandreclame is an
advertising agency with a modern look.
The interview was scheduled for
this morning in the Euroborg of Groningen. I have never interviewed a company
myself so I was quite nervous! The area this company was in was crowded with
buildings and students, so it was hard to find. My groupmate and I spent 5
minutes wandering around to even find the place! Eventually we found the office
of Brandreclame hidden inside a building in the back of the Euroborg.
I had no idea what to expect when
I walked into their office so I put on a smile and tried my best to not let my
nervousness show. My groupmate and I walked into their office and was greeted
by the CEO, and were offered a seat on the couch. My groupmate was in charge of
asking the questions while I wrote them down. The guy we were interviewing is
an account director. We learned about all his responsibilities with the clients
and how he aims to maintain relationships. Before we did this interview, I
never ever knew what an account director was. He showed us examples of his
advertising products and even let us take home some samples such as an energy
drink.
The interview took only about 20
minutes, and I gained so much knowledge on the job that I didn’t know when I
walked into the interview. My nervousness went away about halfway through the
interview, and it was delightful. The company was cute and modern and I could
see myself working there one day.
This interview really prepared me
and gave me insight to what interviewing someone is like, and I really look
forward to performing another interview later on in my life if possible.
