One company that I have always wanted to work for is Apple. As a user and collector of Apple, I would enjoy working for their marketing team in any department but ideally I would like to work in the branding department for in-store displays, either promoting products or software. However, I currently have a zero hour contract with Circle Health Group in their marketing departing. I work with the social media team, creating Instagram posts and reels for different platforms creating content promoting a self-pay campaign and the benefits of receiving private health care. I hope to gain a permanent contract with them in the new year to guarantee hours within the company, get more industry experience and to hopefully move my way up in different departments.
I follow a lot of designers and developers on instagram that I inspire to be like and take inspiration from. They follow offer videos teaching different tools in softwares such as Adobe Photoshop and XD. They had also helped me a lot during my MA as this semester has focused heavily on UI and UX design. Leading me to see their industry insights and experience first hand, and where the market may be heading in the future.
