      Jul 2010 - Aug 2010
      English Editor

      When I was 17 years old I worked as an English Editor for the bilingual Chinese magazine Metrozine, based out of Shanghai and Beijing in China. Working to daily deadlines and overcoming communication barriers, I had the opportunity to edit and proof read my colleagues articles. I was also given the opportunity to work individually adopting different writing styles when producing a variety of reviews, travel articles, interviews and advertisements which were subsequently all published under my name. I was required to travel alone all over the city, sometimes even further outside, for events such as the opening of Chinese Arts & Crafts, therefore having to stick to strict deadlines and working around non-office hours. Each day involved a different task and was different to all the other days. As I joined the company in the middle of the month, I was able to see the whole publishing process twice for the July and August issues. This particular industry is fast paced, demanding me to work a lot of the time independently and involving making quick business decisions as well as cooperating within a small team striving towards the same goals.
