Wow, what a busy week! I've been working for Sailor Girl Ltd, and events company here in Newcastle, at the ICADI conference at the SAGE in Gateshead. It's been a really useful few days, hard work but definitely good. 7am starts to be at the SAGE for delegates arriving. There's been a huge amount of work gone into this conference, and it's been really interesting to see it all come together for such a large event. It's also the first time this conference, about aging and disability, has been held outside of the USA. It's usually held in Florida, a little different to the climate in Gateshead, but the weather's given us a good couple of days!
I've really enjoyed gaining a little more events experience, and it just further proves the power of Twitter since that's how I got the job! Plus, it's lead to an internship with the events company, so I really can't stress enough just how useful Twitter's been in my networking and job search. Even if you can't find anything permanent, Twitter's a great place to find internships or temp work. All this experience will only make your CV better and better, which will lead to a better job in the long run.
