This job simulation went into incredibly helpful detail about how to conduct the assigned tasks while still giving enough leeway for me to figure out the specifics myself, which I thought was a really effective way of learning how to professionally communicate in this role. The tasks themselves were also very practical, and I know I'll be taking this experience into my professional.

As a recent graduate and still unsure of where I'd like to go and what I want to do, this program was an amazing experience that helped me in figuring out and stepping foot into a now high potential field I'm interested in. Each step was informative in providing details to my role, my team, my client, and how to overall work in collaboration and management.

I appreciated how immersive and realistic the simulation was. The tasks provided a genuine insight into the strategic and collaborative nature of client services at The New York Times. I particularly valued the opportunity to engage in cross-functional planning and experience how real advertising proposals are developed from initial outreach through to RFP response.
