— If you need to talk to China, talk with us!
UMS has been welcoming students to take part in our Internship program for a few years now, it has always been much loved by our interns as they get to work in UMS's offices across the globe.
Cleo Gilmour came onboard as the Asia New Zealand Foundation Business Internship Programme and successfully completed her internship in UMS Shanghai office.
Over the course of Cleo’s internship, she shared her experiences living in Shanghai with our UMS teams and discovered that New Zealanders' perceptions of China need updating to account for the massive changes the country has undergone in recent years.
In this article, Cleo writes about her experiences as an intern and getting to know China, its customs and culture.
“I think you can tell a lot about a country from its food and China is a lot like its cuisine: vast, varying and most people’s experience of it outside China is not reflective of the real thing. This was certainly my experience living in Shanghai as an intern at United Media Solution.
……
Interning at United Media Solution was the perfect introduction to living in China. Within the first week I had downloaded over 20 new apps. Being at UMS meant I learnt how each one applied to brands as well as how to use them in my own daily life.
Most of the UMS team have studied overseas, English is widely spoken and my colleagues’ perspectives on life in and outside of the Middle Kingdom were a brilliant source of daily knowledge. Having such amazing colleagues was a definite highlight and meant I got the low down on where to go, what to eat, and how to live life best in Shanghai.
My role in the digital planning team included doing research on the current social media climate, designing marketing campaigns and writing case studies on work UMS was involved in. This was the perfect learn-by-doing experience as the China social media scene is mind boggling and constantly changing.
……
I’m extremely grateful for the opportunity to have been swept up in this bustling, vibrant country. I feel as though I have only scratched the surface and can’t wait to come back in the near future and dive in deeper.”
