Greetings from Paris!! I am now a Marketing Projects Manager for a financial company. My department basically organizes events to make sure that our clients meet the main companies which have shares to sell, as well as our financial analysts who are always good advisers to consult before making a decision in this specific world! I spend three-quarters of my time planning events and making sure that every person concerned gets the right amount of information needed. I am basically a link between the clients, our investors, salespersons, and analysts from my company. The other quarter of my time is spent on the events themselves, which is a lot of fun and stress!! Being at the heart of these events can be very exciting but also very scary! However, I get to meet great people (CEO’s, CFO’s, etc…) and work in great venues!

As an event planner, I use the many skills I gained with my M.S. everyday. My position requires skills in marketing, event planning and public relations. These are just a few of the many topics covered during my formation. The advantage of the M.S. in communications at IC is that it covers so many topics linked to the world of communication and at the end, we are capable of performing a wide variety of jobs.

At IC, I did more than just gain a very good formation in communications. I met a lot of people from all over the world; a lot of them I can now call “friends”.
