Two Swansea University students talk about their experiences as content creators, undertaking summer internships in the Employability Team - key examples of how development of partnerships with students to co-design employability initiatives and resources can benefit all parties involved.
“From independent working to organisation, written communication to problem solving and research skills to time management, working as a content creator allowed me to strengthen all of those skills and many more.
For those in the humanities, or STEM, who enjoy being creative and the process of research and writing, the content creator internship is perfect. With a lot of independence, you can really think outside of the box and craft some unique and engaging content. While you are independent, you do have weekly-catch-up meetings, and a line manager on-call to answer any questions or if you need guidance, so there is room for growth and much support.
