Let’s Get it Started!!!

Hello Everyone!

We are Jana and Nina, the two new interns at AutoCom and would love to introduce us to all of you. We are both from Germany, both young, dynamic and want to learn as much as possible.

Jana will go first:

“Hi everyone!

My name is Jana Appelt. I am 22 years old, I was born in Hamburg and I have been studying Foreign Trade and International Management with a focus on Marketing in that awesome city since 2010.

Prior to joining AutoCom, I served as an intern at Lutz Elevators and Allmiral Hermal. I also worked part-time at R&V Assurance and Lutz Elevators during my studies. Currently, I live in Royal Oak.

My first week is already over now and it’s a big adventure, everyday a new thing to discover!”

Now, let’s see what Nina has to say:

“Hello there!

My name is Nina von Spalding. I hold a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Bonn in Communications and Psychology and am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Culture, Communication and Globalization at Aalborg University, Denmark.

Previously, I served internships at several communication agencies and have worked as a freelance journalist.

This is not my first time to the States: During 2001/2002, I was an exchange student in Charlotte, NC, and it is just so great to be back after all these years!”

We are looking forward to our time at AutoCom and are confident that this will be an amazing experience!

Jana & Nina

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...

It feels good to be home!

After completing my third year at Northern Michigan University in the Upper Peninsula, it feels good to be back home and in the office again. Larry was very gracious in allowing me to come back to AutoCom. For those of you that do not know me, my name is Tedi Falvo. Last summer I did an internship with AutoCom, and learned a lot about public relations outside of the classroom. Books can only teach you so much- the real learning comes when you go out on your own and put everything you have learned to the test. Last summer was a great experience, and I was thankful to work with such a great staff that was willing to help me succeed. While I was in Marquette, Mich. continuing my studies in public relations, and sociology, I remained in contact with AutoCom. When I had a question regarding an aspect of my studies, I always knew where to turn! It is nice to have wonderful people surrounding and filling you with all of their knowledge. That is one aspect I love about working here-everyone wo...

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...
