Upon completion of my internship, I think that its only fair to evaluate my experiences with the current company… Of course if I take the time to state my opinion, their score is really leading only one of two ways…
Morgan Reynolds Publishing Company is located in Greensboro, North Carolina. Their offices are in what used to be a blue jean factory, tall brick building right on the corner of the street. Now seeing how easily it is to describe and even get there, my first day it took me almost 20 minutes to find this place! Passed it three times!
But once I made it in, it was all green lights… The employees were only too kind and helpful, and my supervisor? I could not have asked for a better individual to look and guide me.
Let me provide a little bit of background: to me, they provide the books that you see in libraries or personal libraries (for the more luxurious lifestyle), mainly books that schools provide for research, book reports, history, science, math, english papers… that sort of thing.
And that’s what amazed me from the beginning! Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve wondered where the books come that are in our school libraries? And here, I found my answer in my last year of college.
Any who, but they also ship books individually which is a great opportunity as well. It’s like the Food Lion and Costco at the same time…
But don’t think that a publishing company is an easy, laid-back occupation. I was just an intern and I had the responsibility of doing the budget spreadsheets for photos, as well as, fact checking an entire manuscript!
The fact checking may have been the most tedious but it improved my editing skills by almost 50%… And it allowed me to understand the value of already written books.
The photo research was more of a time – consuming task, since I went through each book and documented each photo with a source, the price, the description, and location. But both duties provided me the opportunity to increase my knowledge in various topics… I truly enjoyed every moment.
So what’s my grade for Morgan Reynolds Publishing Company? A –
The only reason its a minus is because I did not have enough time to stay in the office (due to school spring semester) in order for it to be a A+…. And my professors say to never give A+’s because then they think there is no room for better.
But they honestly were an amazing company and I definitely would intern with Morgan Reynolds again.
