I had been referred to the firm by one of its clients who had been working closely with the firm for years. I received a call in spring of 2008 from one of the intern coordinators. She was very friendly and told me the great news - they'd like me to come in and interview in person. She also asked that I send two writing samples. Once I went in, we talked about why I was interested in communications/PR and past experiences in both my career as well as college. We had a great conversation and I left feeling optimistic. About 2 months later, I received the call that I was chosen for the fall group.
