The USdigital team recently welcomed Conor Holland for a week of work experience, a 17 year old currently studying at St Pauls in Leicester.<\/p>\n
We put together a series of digital tasks and exercises for Conor, designed to give an insight into digital services and how we assist our clients on a daily basis, here are some words from Conor:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
During my week at Unsworth Sudgen I worked with the digital team to develop my understanding of the Digital Marketing industry through a wide variety of tasks and exercises.<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em>I\u2019ve really enjoyed my time here as I\u2019ve learned a lot of new skills. One of the key tasks I undertook was to develop my own website to showcase my A-level photography work which was really beneficial and the team were very helpful with the website when I got stuck and wasn\u2019t sure what to do with regards to the layout or certain aspects of the Content Management System.<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em>I also briefed the design of my own logo into the creative team who were more than happy to assist and turn my logo vision in to a reality.<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em>Another significant task was to carry out an SEO audit for a new client website which I found really informative as it had never previously occurred to me just how much goes into the optimisation of a website. In addition to this I received some brief Google Analytics training from the team and I also learned how to set up and configure Analytics for my own website.<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em>Further to this I spent some time shadowing the web developers who taught me the basics of code and shared various useful pieces of software with me \u2013 with the assistance of the team I carried out some web and email amendments for a couple of clients too!<\/em><\/p>\n
