Jasmína Orlická
For me, working and doing something that you love is the key to success and happiness: if I am not happy, I am not successful. That’s why I consider myself to be extremely lucky right now, interning at a company that I love straight after completing my studies at IE University.
My passion is photography and I am very fortunate to be working in a field that incorporates this passion, and allows me to pursue my talents even further. I am currently in Prague, working for Havas, a creative agency that manages social media for some of the world’s biggest companies, including Google. I’m working as a digital executive, and I love my position and I have the chance to work on many different tasks within my role. I am able to put my creative mind to the test, working on videos, taking photos for clients, and social media. Working has been an eye-opening experience for me and I am delighted with the opportunity to gain real-world experience in an exciting sector.
I am always trying to improve my skill set, and when not working, I am either running, playing guitar, or singing. IE University helped me to develop critical thinking skills, and my professors helped me to realize my potential throughout the entirety of my studies. My biggest takeaway from my professors is the importance of elevating your classmates and colleagues, as in my creative role, teamwork is hugely important and an invaluable asset for success.
"I’m very happy that work became a part of my life because it is something that I enjoy and I think it is something that is very important to achieve in your life."
