The ACT360 Experience: Nischal Shrestha, Intern

The ACT360 Experience: Nischal Shrestha, Intern

I had just completed my 4th semester and I had my summer break ahead of me. I was planning to do an internship to make something fruitful out of my vacation. I was looking for internship opportunities around social media, and that’s when I found an internship posting open at ACT360. I applied and after a few days, I got an interview call. I was extremely happy that I got selected for the position of Digital Marketing Intern.

The beginning

The very first day was a day with mixed feelings. Well, this was going to be my first day at my first job. I arrived a bit early, then I was asked to join the daily morning meeting which was called Huddle. I was made to introduce myself, then the team shared their good news and updates. I was welcomed with an open heart. My onboarding tasks were assigned and I was asked to complete some training.

The first day felt quite overwhelming; new people, new job, new place. It took me a few days to get used to the job environment and become familiar with everything at the job.

The fun environment

Before starting to work I always thought that offices had environments that were super strict, formal, and just all about work; but ACT360 was different. As I got used to working at ACT360, I got more familiar with the environment, people, and work culture. Be it the fun daily huddle, the in-office parties, or the environment that quenched my thirst for learning.

The working Sundays were not much about working. Sundays were super fun, we used to have lunch outside together with teammates, and after coming back from lunch we would play fun games together. The working sphere was not hectic at all.

The work journey

As the days went by, I was assigned various tasks. Each work assigned to me as a digital marketing intern was an opportunity to learn something new. Be it writing blogs, brainstorming ideas for future content, researching what to write or what to make, scheduling posts, or writing SEOs, all these tasks taught me something new, improved my existing skills, and built my knowledge of marketing. These tasks together acted like building blocks in learning the fundamentals of digital marketing.
I even got the chance to represent the company at career fair which was really fun.

However, these tasks were never hectic or daunting, rather they were very manageable. I was given one task at a time so I could put my 100% on it. These tasks became more enjoyable once I got the hang of them. If I ever got stuck doing a task or did not know how to do it the right way, I always had my superb mentors and supervisors who would guide me.

Bidding Goodbye

As the final day of my internship came closer, I started to feel a little sad as I did not want to leave my team of superstars in ACT360. Even though I was here for a relatively short period, I was very much bonded with my teammates and work environment.
On the last day, I was feeling sad as I was already attached to my work here. But as all good things come to end so did my journey here at ACT360. I wrote an email with a farewell message and I also expressed my gratitude to the ACT360 family.

ACT360 will always hold a special place in my heart, I will forever cherish all the wonderful memories I made here. I appreciate all their guidance and support I received during my internship journey. I gathered a lot of experience and knowledge working here which I believe would be very fruitful in building my career.

Thank you ACT360 for everything.
Keep doing awesome things.

The ACT360 Experience: Jyotirmaya Pradhan, Intern

On the 22nd of June, I had my interview scheduled here. Wanting to make a good first impression, I ended up 30 minutes ahead of time. I kept lingering around the area until it was exactly 10:30. Once I entered through the gates my only thought was figuring out where I was supposed to go.

Upon receiving help from one of the staff present I landed in the interview room. There I sat for about 5-10 minutes, wondering what all I’d say when asked to say something about myself. I had no idea of what to expect in the interview so I was prepared for the worst. When I was told to start the very next day, I guessed the interview went well.

The Beginning of The End?

The next day, my first day, I went straight upstairs to the room where my interview took place and it turns out all the team members were present there. As soon as they saw me, they warmly welcomed me. I clumsily kept my bag aside and entered the room to see the faces of my new team members for the first time.

The everyday morning huddle is something that I was found to be unfamiliar with but yet fascinated, as the huddle consisted of sharing the good news of individuals and updating the rest of the team about the progress made by different departments. On the first day, I was assigned a buddy, Sudeeksha who helped me get comfortable and settled in. She would come to check up on me and help me if I was unable to complete any tasks.

The ACT Experience

I consider the prank that they played on me to be the icebreaker even though I didn’t quite fall for it. It showed me that this company is not at all a boring bossy formal environment office. This was a safe workspace where I could talk to anybody, joke around, and make a fool of myself and yet nobody would judge me.

The thing that I admire the most about ACT360 is that we knew when to have fun and when to work hard. Despite the foolish things we might have done during our break, every single individual here is great at what they do and are always eager to teach us, interns. They want us interns to take as much as we can with us when we leave this place. Every opportunity they had they would call us upon and teach us the basics.

Few days I would be piled up with work that needed to be completed ASAP…. Meanwhile, some work could be procrastinated for days. Looking back in time, meeting deadlines was one of the major challenges I faced here. Even though my seniors helped me if I got stuck somewhere, it was kinda embarrassing for me to keep asking them for help again and again. If they had a problem with my work they would give me proper feedback on how I could improve my writing.

So….This is Goodbye

At ACT360 it is not just always work…..We played games and bonded on a deeper level on working Sundays, we even organised a cheese ball challenge for the whole team, and trust me when I say this, some of the reactions were just hilarious. You can find the video on their Facebook page :p

Even though I was here for only 2 months, I never felt left out and was included in everything. Sadly, my time here is over now and I’m definitely going to miss this place, the prank call, daily vibing through random songs, and the food we got from collecting donations.

What I did here are all nothing but precious memories and lessons I will forever cherish. Choosing to intern here was certainly one of the best decisions I ever made. I can be sure when I say that my skills have sharpened unquestionably. I hope you guys keep doing awesome things and wish you all the best.
