First Steps to Real Experience: My Time as a Marketing Intern at OakMega

I came across OakMega almost by chance. I was about to start grad school and felt it was time to ease into the working world. I had zero work experience and wasn't sure where I was headed—I just had some marketing experience from before, so I figured: why not give marketing a try? OakMega's products and content looked interesting and genuinely caught my eye, and I was curious what the B2B world was really like. So I joined OakMega. Looking back, these six months flew by, and I've never once regretted the decision!

Over the past six months, I took on all kinds of work: online webinars, our LINE Biz-Solutions Awards entry, the Mid-Autumn Festival showcase design, the year-end product launch, plus everyday tasks like running search ads and cleaning up our internal CRM data. Maybe because we're a startup, I got to be directly involved in all of it—rolling up my sleeves and bringing my own ideas to the table!

Running a webinar meant building everything from the landing page and ad structure to a fully automated registration flow and the webinar demo itself. Taking it from 0 to 100 taught me a lot by doing. How should we communicate the promotion? How do we get people to sign up? How do we make sure registrants actually show up on time? Most importantly, how do we make sure attendees walk away with valuable insights, so the webinar doesn't just generate leads for us but actually drives conversions?

Putting together our awards entry materials and designing the Mid-Autumn showcase gave me plenty of room to think about how to present things. I discovered that even tasks that look simple involve a lot of details behind the scenes, and the overall logic matters a great deal. I think the biggest lesson was learning to look at things from a different angle, and to weave scattered information into a compelling story that helps the audience truly understand the value we want to deliver.

Team Building

Every time I wrapped up a project during these six months and saw it go from nothing to something, it felt incredibly rewarding! A huge thank-you to Tia, Porsche, Irene and Abby—everyone was so warm! With their help, feedback and encouragement, I not only learned where I could improve, but also gained experience I could never get at school, and I now have a much clearer sense of my future direction. While preparing for the UNEXT competition, I even realized I'd quietly built up a lot of skills along the way, both soft skills and professional expertise!

Beyond the work itself, the best part for me was OakMega's amazing atmosphere! I made so many fun memories, like preparing the giveaways for our product launch—so much fun! I feel incredibly lucky to have found this kind of environment and these people at my very first internship, and I believe these takeaways will keep fueling me on the road ahead.
