Diary of a Business Associate Intern – Europe
July 22nd, 2013 | Published in Uncategorized
Our 'Diary of a Business Associate Intern' series is designed to give you an inside look into the life of Google interns based all over Europe. Today, the spotlight is on Charles Biberson from France, who is a business associate intern on YouTube in our Google London office.
Two months already! Everything has gone by so fast, and I've already experienced so much.
I am french, from Paris, and joined the YouTube Next Lab EMEA team in April 2013, as part of my Media Management masters.
Why did I apply? Where else can you experience being part of something global, impacting millions of people, offering the widest range of content ever? YouTube is such a key player and I got the chance to play my part in this.
Working in NextLab is a unique opportunity. The teams, in UK, US and Japan, support and collaborate with partners, and are focused on accelerating the growth and development of channels and creators on YouTube.
As part of the EMEA team in London, I am conducting research, studying new ways for partners to grow. I highlight existing best practices and above all propose innovative ideas. Becoming an expert in a specific field offers me the opportunity to learn more from Googlers, and to provide advice to partners. And this interaction is at the core of what makes the job so rewarding.
From day one, the people I work with have been friendly and supportive. Colleagues I met in the London office (or e-met, working with Googlers from all over the world) make me feel a part of the team. I have learned that sharing what you know and asking what you don’t is at the core of being successful. Information is available, everyone is keen to share.
My typical day starts with poached eggs and bacon and a chatty breakfast with colleagues. And then, the days go by in the amazing London office: checking emails, meetings, improvised chats in micro kitchen and time to focus on my research in one of the silent booths.
Google fun fact! (among so many others). I participated in YouTube Space London summer party in June. The Space organized a music festival. Gigs, DJs, rap battles, palm reading: amazing evening to meet the best creators in town.
