Hi all, my name is Christina and I’m the instinct pr’s newest team member. My background is mainly beauty and lifestyle so a perfect fit for instinct pr and their clients. Here is the inside scoop on my first week with the team.

 

My first week has gone by in a haze of meetings, tea and making friends with my Mac. It’s been great to get stuck in and immersed in work after having a few months off whilst I was travelling the world. Now I’m back in the game. A bit of a shock to the system though!

 

Day one = information overload. Team introductions, client backgrounds, ongoing projects, general HR admin, plus setting me up on a Mac which I have NEVER used before. Most important thing was where the kitchen is so I can make my tea (I’m a tea-oholic by the way). Getting to grips with my tasks for the week and letting all my contacts know my new details have been the order of the day.

 

Day two and I’m slowly getting used to my Mac. Although Jonathan did have to help me with quite simple tasks such as when I couldn’t work out how to print. Could have been a blonde moment or just a Mac moment. My brain managed to retain most of the information I was told yesterday though, plus I had a client meeting, which went really well. Some great gossip came out of it, although my lips are sealed…

 

Day three at instinct pr and I’m definitely getting into the swing of things. Work is busy and the days are flying past but I enjoy the fast-paced nature of it – you have to when you work in PR! We have lots of exciting things happening for BACARDI as well as Lipsy fragrance and Ultimo Beauty. Watch this space! After work we headed out for a drink as the sun had finally appeared. I’m getting to know everyone and it helps that we all like a glass of wine at the end of the day!

 

The remainder of the week passes by super fast. I’m working on a new beauty launch which is incredibly exciting as well as lots of media partnerships and events. It’s been a crazy week and I’m looking forward to a lie in tomorrow morning but it’s also been a lot of fun. We’ll have to see what next week at instinct pr has in store for me…
