Joedy Amia: Internship at MyZone fuels growth and creativity
Joedy Amia, currently an intern at MyZone, has quickly become a notable presence in the dynamic world of media and marketing.
Drawn to the role by the opportunity to gain an up-close look at the inner workings of a modern media organisation, Amia sees this internship as a critical stepping stone toward a career that blends journalism and marketing.
“My journalism background, with its strong emphasis on writing, research and production skills, equips me well for marketing,” says Amia.
Prior experience in conducting interviews, reaching out to sources and following up professionally has laid a strong foundation for tackling the fast-paced demands of a media environment.
Amia is particularly excited about learning to stay calm under pressure while executing campaigns flawlessly under tight deadlines. “Marketing is often campaign-based and reactive,” he notes. “This internship will teach me to understand workflow and perform efficiently, essential skills for any successful marketing team member.”
Yet, like many rising professionals, Amia anticipates challenges, especially when self-doubt arises about the quality of ideas or writing compared to colleagues.
Navigating a high-paced environment
Structured feedback is important to Amia’s growth.
While comfortable working independently, Amia values formal mid-project reviews to catch major issues early.
The internship also offers an opportunity to master prioritisation, consistently meet non-negotiable deadlines and refine the ability to break tasks into manageable steps.
Collaboration is another strength. Amia enjoys exchanging ideas with colleagues, leveraging the busy, open-plan newsroom environment that encourages quick communication. Motivated by a focus on craft improvement, Amia thrives on conducting conversations with experts and leveraging trending social media topics to contribute meaningfully to campaigns.
Outside the office, Amia finds balance through exercise and reading, activities that recharge and inspire new perspectives. With a keen eye on learning, growth and meaningful contributions, Joedy Amia is poised to make a lasting impact in the media and marketing space.
