School of Music Office Intern

By -

Hi! My name is Katelynn Lesinski and I had a couple of internships in my time at ISU! The first internship that I had was in the School of Music office, where I worked with another student to make social media posts for the School of Music Instagram and Facebook accounts. We made posts about upcoming events, guest artists, and lots of engagement posts for current students, future students, and alumni. I got this internship because the student who had run the SoM social media accounts was graduating, and Dr. Ransom wanted to fill the position. I expressed my interest and experience in an email to Dr. Ransom, and I got the position! Throughout this position, I learned a lot about time management and digital content creation. I also learned a lot about viewer engagement. I had such a fun time working with my fellow intern Neil Alford, and Dr. Ransom, and would highly recommend this internship to anyone interested in social media!

Internship with Quinlan and Fabish Music Company

By -
 Hello, my name is Mikey Schelinski and over the summer, I interned at Quinlan and Fabish Music Company (Q&F)! Q&F is a music store that focuses on instrument rentals and repair. This company sells student, intermediate, and professional instruments. As a young musician, Q&F was the main place where I purchased all of my equipment and rented to own my first saxophone. When searching for internships, Q&F was certainly one of the places I was very interested in looking into. Having no previous connections, I emailed the company's "help" email account and asked who I could get in touch with to see how to apply for an internship. Within the day, I got a response saying they would love to have me. A few weeks later, I had a phone call with Marsha Orwig, the internship coordinator at Q&F. We talked about the different responsibilities as well as other day-to-day tasks I would be doing as an intern. I immediately felt very comfortable after this phone call an...

Internship at the Castle Theatre

By -
  Hi, my name is Maisy King and I interned at the Castle Theatre this past semester, spring 2023. During the day I worked in the box office selling tickets and a few times I distributed posters for upcoming shows around campus and other surrounding locations .  As the semester progressed, I began to work shows in the evening which was a lot of fun. The first two shows I shadowed Bri for but for the rest I got to do some other things. I got to work box office for shows, which was a lot busier in the evening, but I was als o able to get to learn how to do stagehands and sell the artist's merch for some. All of these aspects were new to me prior to interning here but I found them to be a lot of fun, I learned a lot, and it was interesting to see how different areas of the business and a live show funct ion. I really enjoyed my time here interning at the Castle Theatre and I will definitely use the skills that I learned here in my future career!

Intern at the Castle Theatre

By -
 Hello, my name is Satomi Radostits and I interned at the Castle Theatre this semester. The Castle Theatre is a live music venue that also hosts private events. Working at the Castle allowed me to use the knowledge I've obtained throughout the years and utilize it at this venue. During my time, I worked with Nicole and Jason the most often. I helped mostly in their Box Office, selling tickets during their day hours. This was an easy fit for me, as I had experience already working in a box office. With my prior experience, I found find similarities and differences between the three different types of ticket systems I have worked with, as well as seeing the pros and cons of them all. Apart from that, I also did some marketing work, updating the Bloomington-Normal website with all of the events that the Castle announced. I learned how to use Hive.co as well to set up emails and competitions for free tickets. I also got to help set up for some privet events, as well as updating their m...
