Tell us about your role and department
Working in the Marketing Department at Expleo as a Marketing Intern has given me the opportunity to learn and grow while supporting internal communications, content creation and event coordination.
One of the most exciting parts of my role has been contributing ideas to internal marketing initiatives and content. Whether writing posts, supporting campaigns or creating engaging materials, it has been rewarding to see these ideas come to life and help connect employees.
What has been your most exciting project?
Two projects that have stood out to me are the Back2School and Women’s Day events.
The Back2School event gave me the opportunity to help plan and coordinate an initiative that brought colleagues together, particularly at a time when many employees were working from home.
For Women’s Day, I proposed the idea and had the opportunity to approach and engage with women I look up to as potential contributors. Developing the concept and seeing it take shape was a motivating experience.
What challenges have you faced, and how did you overcome them?
Planning events and managing budgets can be challenging, especially when balancing creative ideas with practical limitations. I have learned that Marketing is not just about creating content; it also requires strategic planning, collaboration and effective communication with different stakeholders.
These experiences have helped me become more adaptable, strengthen my problem-solving skills and find practical ways to turn ideas into meaningful initiatives.
What is it like experiencing your first corporate job
While this is not my first corporate role, joining Expleo has been an exciting experience. I have enjoyed working with a talented team, contributing to meaningful marketing initiatives and continuing to develop professionally.
Being part of a corporate environment has allowed me to do work I enjoy, take on new challenges and continue investing in my professional growth.
Any advice for future interns at Expleo?
Embrace every opportunity to learn and contribute. Be curious, ask questions, seek guidance and get involved in projects.
Do not be afraid to share your ideas or make mistakes. Every experience is an opportunity to learn and develop. Expleo is a dynamic and collaborative environment, so being proactive, adaptable and willing to take initiative will help you make the most of your internship.
How has this internship helped you grow professionally?
My internship has given me valuable hands-on experience in internal communications, content creation and event coordination. It has also helped me build confidence and strengthen my problem-solving and collaboration skills.
Most importantly, I have gained a better understanding of how Marketing contributes to employee engagement across the organisation. Being able to contribute ideas and see them come to life has made the experience both rewarding and insightful.
