Because this camp and retreat center is new and still developing, I hope to learn how to market and manage a business from the ground up. Through my marketing tasks, I hope to learn how to create a brand for a growing business by reaching out to people, especially through social media. Most businesses nowadays are maximizing social media, so I hope to learn the best ways to utilize these platforms to reach a wider audience. Through my management tasks, I hope to learn how to communicate with others, delegate tasks to others, and work together with my coworkers. I also hope to learn more about networking and developing relationships with people.<\/p>\n<p>This internship also gives me experience on working for a nonprofit organization, and I hope to gain insight on how a business like this operates. Because I do not know exactly what career I want in the business field, this internship is very beneficial to me as a business administration major, which is broad and gives me the ability to take various routes in my career path. With this internship, I can gain experience in marketing and management and decide which I like more or if I like both. I have learned a lot so far in my internship, and I am excited to continue to gain more experience.  <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-624x416.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-3-300x288.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"288\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-3-300x288.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-3-768x737.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-3-624x598.jpg 624w, https:\/\/sites.scranton.edu\/careerservices\/files\/2019\/06\/Maria-Hickey-3.jpg 976w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Maria Hickey<br \/>\nBusiness Administration<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My marketing internship at Our Lady of the Fields Camp and Retreat Center in Brighton, Michigan is going very well.
