Tinley Park, IL, June 12, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jenna Ferguson is the newest addition to South Chicago Management Group as a Marketing Intern for the summer. She also is a student at the University of Findlay, will be graduating this fall. While her time as a student at UF she has learned to be a better citizen through community service along with getting hands-on work experience. The mission statement at UF is “Meaningful lives. Productive Careers.” Jenna stated “UF 100% wants every student to graduate feeling like they have gained new value to themselves. While attending this university not only do I feel like I have bettered myself, but my skill sets have also improved as well.”
In Jenna’s free time, she loves going to Chicago Bears games, watching sports on TV, and playing volleyball. She describes herself as a sports fanatic. One of the biggest reasons why she chose UF was because they have a partnership program with the Cleveland Browns. She has had great experience while volunteering with the Browns on their gameday events along with working their VIP Draft Day party. Some more experiences that Jenna has gained by attending UF was being able to intern while being a full-time student. She was a part of two clubs on campus and was the Vice-President for the Marketing club. Jenna will also be the VP of UF’s Marketing club again for her last semester! One of Jenna’s biggest accomplishments was creating an event on campus and having one of New York Times Best Selling Authors and a Marketing Pioneer come to the school to talk to over 300 students and 100 community members. “It was such a great experience for me to organize and market an event like this, and I certainly could not have done it without the help of the marketing club,” explained Jenna.
With her summer being back in Illinois, she had the options of interning with some businesses that specialize in sales and marketing. “When I had the opportunity to interview with SCMG I knew it would be a great fit for me because the company culture is friendly and driven, and you get the vibe that everyone wants you to grow as individuals and with the company. One thing that stood out to me the most about SCMG was that their marketing strategy is more about personal relationships,” described Jenna. While working with SCMG this summer, Jenna is looking forward to learning more about product marketing, and how SCMG handles their business management because the company is rapidly growing. Jenna is also excited to learn more about the company and following their analytics to see what marketing concepts work best for SCMG and their target market. With the help of Jenna, SCMG is ready to bring new ideas to the company and help grow their social media marketing. “Being a student with one semester left it was important to me that I find an internship where I can grow and gain experiences because I am stepping into the real world here shortly and I want to be prepared! I am really looking forward to spending my summer with SCMG and learning from the SCMG team,” stated Jenna.
