EXPERIENCES OF PREVIOUS INTERNS

Hilma Rissanen, Laurea University of Applied Sciences. Internship 11/2021-1/2022

"My internship at Visit Espoo was a highly positive experience. During the internship, I gained a comprehensive overview of the organization's operations and had the opportunity to work on tasks focused on content creation for Visit Espoo's social media channels and marketing communications for the website. In content creation for various social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter, you can exercise creativity, such as planning the text and visual presentation of an Instagram post. Experiences in these types of tasks are undoubtedly valuable for the future, as many companies and organizations will increasingly work in digital marketing."

"I can highly recommend internships at Visit Espoo to all tourism students interested in marketing-related tasks in particular.”
