Chalk & Ward has supported me through my work experience, and I’m so grateful for the opportunities they’ve given me.

I’ve been doing work experience at Chalk and Ward for just over a month. I
sent them a message via their website and got back
saying they’d be more than happy to give me experience for as long as I
wanted to help me with university applications. They’ve been guiding me
through the different parts that make up marketing to make sure I have an
amazing experience that can benefit me and aid me later on in my own
work.


Since being here, I’ve been given loads of opportunities to learn how to do
different things within the company. This includes looking over their client
list, going through their websites, and giving my own input about what
works and what doesn’t work. They’re always open to receiving any
feedback, focusing on making sure each client has the best chance of
succeeding and reaching as many customers as possible.


They’ve allowed me to have a hands-on experience by helping me write
articles for different clients to help them reach their customers and
advertise different features within their business. I’ve also worked
alongside other people writing different ads for clients to help advertise
new offers coming later in the year. They’ve been supportive, answering
any questions I have and always making sure I know what I’m doing.
As well as this, I’ve also been able to observe different parts of the
business. I’ve been able to join meetings with other clients, learning how
websites can be adapted behind the scenes to appeal to a wider audience
and target those who would be more interested in specific products. Other
meetings include a debrief of the week and updating the whole team on any
situations that need attention, as well as talking about how to help existing
and new clients so that they can achieve their goals.


As well as this, I’ve been introduced to different types of software to help
communicate with other members of the team, and different websites to
help enhance my writing and work to target the correct audience. Chalk
and Ward have helped me learn as much as possible to make the
experience as enlightening as possible and allows me to also work
independently on different things specific companies want added to their
websites – specifically articles.


Despite it being short, I’ve enjoyed my time at Chalk and Ward. The team
are incredibly welcoming, helpful and encouraging, and are always looking
to help their clients however they need. They’ve given me an amazing
experience to help me with my future career and helped me become
independent and knowledgeable within the work they give me. I would
highly recommend reaching out to Chalk and Ward to help with your
business – you won’t be disappointed.
