Settling in and Working Hard

It'll be a month tomorrow since starting at West Midlands Fire Service on our social media apprenticeship. I can't believe it as it felt like only yesterday we were sat at our desk on our first day shaking! Since then though we have really settled in; with help from a friendly team to work with and because of all the opportunities we've been given. 

I don't think that either of us thought that we would be let lose to do so much! 

I think it's safe to say that last week has been our busiest week yet. Even so it was extremely enjoyable and very productive. From filming our blog post to visiting Aston Fire Station to visiting Templars Primary School in Coventry where we had to film and write about a Booster Seat Campaign (not to forget going to Manchester to train with The Juice Academy). 

Last week I also did my first solo interview (scary!). This was with @Bluelighthinking; who are the Research and Development team at West Midlands Fire Service. This was a great experience for me as it helped boost my confidence as well as learn skills about interviewing, taking notes and writing up an article after. (you can also read this on our #SMAvlog!) 

They're just a few things we did; you can read about the rest on our #SMAvlog which is updated weekly so get reading! (or watching as we may post videos of our week or videos from events we have been to).

My next post will be about why I made the right choice in choosing this apprenticeship, so keep checking here for it!
