Fresh energy



Hello everyone, we are Christina and Yannik and we just joined the AutoCom Associates team. We are very happy to bring fresh energy, creativity and enthusiasm to AutoCom. We are looking forward to doing our best possible to contribute to the daily business as well as upcoming events.




Hi I’m Christina and I’m 25 years old. I am studying at the University of Applied Science in Recklinghausen, Germany, where I will graduate from next summer. I’m pursuing a bachelor’s degree in international business law and business management.
I look forward to improve my language skills and benefit from working for AutoCom by gaining hands on experience in the field of public relations. 
This is my first time in the USA for such a long period of time and I am really looking look forward to gaining an insight in the American culture. Prior to my internship I was in New York in 2009 for a week. I hope to have a lot of fun and meet new and nice people while I am here, as I have already met at AutoCom.
In the past I held a three-year apprenticeship as a social insurance case manager and worked part-time at an insurance company in Bochum, Germany.


Hi my name is Yannik and I am a 23-year old student from Germany.  I am studying International Business at the Berlin School for Economics and Law, where I will graduate in the summer of 2015. I choose a marketing specialization during my study program, so I am very excited to gain some valuable work experience in public relations. 
This last year I spent in the United Kingdom, in Cambridge to be precise, where I had the chance to study for two semesters. I also worked as an intern for six months right after I graduated high school in the summer of 2010. I worked for an international operating logistics company in Costa Rica, called Dacotrans de Centroamerica.
This is not my first time in the USA either, during high school I had the chance to spend one year in Minnesota as an international exchange student.  Of course it is great to be back and experience some more of the American lifestyle.

Of course we will keep you updated about everything that is going on and our experience at AutoCom.

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...

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...

Traverse City 2009

Squeezed in a Jeep between dozens of boxes filled with flash-drives, key chains, pens and pencils, part of our staff headed to Northern Michigan last week for the annual Management Briefing Seminars (MBS). The MBS is one of the highlights in the automotive events calendar with the “who’s who” attending from the global auto industry. It has become tradition over the years that AutoCom hosts several special events for its clients during that week. This year’s AutoCom team was Larry, Jim, Craig, Jack, Tedi, Eleanor and me. Arriving in Traverse City on Monday afternoon, we started decorating the suite that AutoCom rents during that time at the Grand Traverse Resort and Spa. The suite was open from 7am until 9pm, Monday until Friday, and provided a place for our clients as well as for journalists to work and relax in a nice and quiet atmosphere. To say that Eleanor, Tedi and I weren’t exactly dressed in business clothes would be an understatement. Somehow we had a different schedule in mind...
