Hello everyone,

My name is Philipp Weber and I am 20 years old. I am from Regensburg, Germany and I study European Business Studies at the OTH Regensburg. Since my studies require two internships which have to be abroad, I decided to do one of them in the United States.

 

I’ve always wanted to go to the United States. I wanted to experience the way of living in the land of limitless opportunities. As I have been to the UK for 6 months, I have already experienced what it means to travel to a new country where nearly everything is different. And by the way this feeling of experiencing new things and meeting new people is addictive!

 

Like Christoph I have to work in Germany, due to the current situation. I’ve already planned so much about what to do when I am finally in the US, but unfortunately things turned out differently. Canada and LA where on my list for example. Even if I’d rather be in the US, I appreciate the positive things about this situation.

 

I am looking forward to when I and Christoph can go to America in January for at least a month. Hopefully this works out! I am very excited to get to know the life in the US and to meet my work colleagues.

 

Although, my internship is not in the US at the moment, I am sure I will gain a lot of new skills, experiences and will have a lot of fun working at AutoCom Associates.

 

In the end, I would like to thank Christoph for helping me and getting myself familiar with all the work tasks!

 

Have a good time!

 

Philipp

About Cologne, Cars and Trees… - Update from the other Side of the Lake

 Hi or as we would say in Franconia "Servus", a couple of months have passed since I started my internship at AutoCom and even though I cannot share something about the amazing sites within and around Detroit, I can still give you an update on what is happening.  Philipp has joined us two months ago and we two are currently working on the Social Media Appearance of AutoCom. Even as "digital nomads" we encounter challenges and still have a lot to learn. However, it is great just to create new things from scratch or nearly immediately see a result when sharing a story or creating a post.  But enough of work… About Cologne Larry and the others offered me to go to Cologne to attend a meeting with a client and I - of course - couldn't resist and decided to stay even a bit longer. It was a nice trip with splendid late summer weather and I was able to take a lot of images - at least until my battery died.  About cars Since some of my initial projects were crushed by th...

I won’t be an intern anymore. :)

Hi everybody! There is news again from my life. You know, I am a person who never stops doing something. Either I travel almost every weekend (like I did in the States) or I am looking for new challenges all the time. :-) Well, my internship in Munich as a marketing consulting intern is not too bad, but I have finished University…so what I want is a real job and not an internship. (The only internship I would love to do, even after I graduated, is the one I already did with AutoCom). :) So I continued applying for jobs. I restricted the area to Bavaria for the first applications, because I love that part of Germany. I love the Bavarian dialect (it is so cute and sexy the same time). I love their “Brezn” and their white sausages. And here is the news: I will start on the 26th of November as an employee at Novartis. Novartis is a huge German pharmaceutical company. I will work there for the strategic sourcing marketing. So I will be the one choosing agencies, advertising materials and so...

Time to say Goodbye

Only two days left until Don Haberek will leave the AutoCom Team. He was our COO, interns supervisor and the best cake cutter ever! He always had time for the intern's issues and was listening very patiently and carefully to us. Even if he had to repeat his advice a billion times for the foreign interns! But he wasn't only a great interns supervisor. He also gave everbody the oppotunity to gain some weight, when he was cutting perfectly our (nearly weekly ;-)) cake. We really hope, we will find somebody who has the same great technic to cut a cake: 1) Be very gentle to the cake! 2) Use a very sharpe-edged knife, especially our chocolate junky Mareike doesn't want to waste a bit! 3) Be sure that you cut enough pieces. But we think we allready have a new cake cutter. After a long long time Don finally found his twin brother. And accidentally he is working for AutoCom aswell. :-) Who is dressing like Don, must have the same skills! Thanks for everything, we wi ll miss having...
