A good news blog post…

After a successful 18 months using social media to develop a community and change driving behaviour in West Sussex, the initiative has now been widened to cover the whole of Sussex.

Needless to say, we’re chuffed our social marketing baby is growing up and spreading its wings.

A big thank you to everyone involved, especially the team at West Sussex for being a great client. I also want to say a big thank you to our in-house team of social media analysts and outreach specialists.

Now stop reading this and get on with some work.

It’s crazy to think that I have been working at Qube for almost a year now. It seems like last week I went for an interview with Nigel and Andy and started babbling on about space camp (for reasons I still can’t fully explain.)

Well time does fly when you’re having fun, and in a month or so it will be someone elses turn to go through the inquisition, so to everyone who is applying for the Sussex Internship Programme, don’t worry, we won’t bite. Just make sure you’re brilliant every day and you will get on just fine.

But seriously, the scheme is a great way to get into the digital industries in Sussex (Glenn and I both got full time jobs out of it) and you learn loads of useful skills. You even get a lovely certificate tied up with a green ribbon at the end.

So if you think you want to work for Qube, or another digital media company in Sussex, take a look at the Sussex Internship programme here. You only have until Friday to apply, so hurry!

If you want any advice about the application process, we would be more than happy to help with any questions. So drop me or Glenn an email. And good luck!

Last year, Qube took part in the Brighton Internship Programme. We were incredibly lucky with both our candidates and employed both Tom and Glenn. We will be taking part again this year…

If anyone is interested, we highly recommend it. Qube is quoted in the Argus newspaper today, discussing the programme – check it out for more details.
