Blog homeMembers of CHG's marketing department hosted two Utah university students Jan. 25 as part of the American Advertising Federation of Utah's 2012 Student Shadow Day.
Jessie Roberts, studying at Weber State University in Ogden, Utah, shadowed corporate communication manager Vanessa Hoy, while Bakir Hamza, studying at Westminster College in Salt Lake City, shadowed search engine marketing manager Darin Gibson.
Both Jessie and Bakir enjoyed tours of the CHG building and introductions to marketing team members and got a feel for the many different roles in communication and marketing. They also attended a lunch with CHG marketing leaders and other AAF-Utah members where award-winning advertising designs were presented.
"Thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity this morning! It was great getting to know you," Jessie shared in an email. "The experience was very eye-opening and educational. You taught me many valuable things that will help a lot with my career track. I appreciate how welcoming and helpful you and your team were to me. The fun environment and camaraderie that you all have is something that I hope to have at my employer eventually. Maybe one day I will work with you."
