A day as a mediamatician apprentice
As a mediamatician at Johnson & Johnson, there is rarely a day that starts the same as the previous one. This is for the simple reason that mediamaticians have many different tasks to perform. But it makes sense to check your e-mails first and see if you have received any new orders that have priority or an invitation to a meeting. Then I start with the assigned work, such as designing a PowerPoint presentation, editing a video, or gathering information for a banner. As a mediamatician, there are constantly new and challenging tasks that I can grow with as an apprentice. I also have an incredibly good relationship with my vocational and practical instructors, as well as with my former practical instructors in other departments at J&J. The relationship with my current work colleagues is also particularly good. A great advantage of J&J is the many trainees at the various locations, who you can also count as part of your working environment. After all, J&J is a huge company with several locations in Switzerland. This allows you to get to know people from all over Switzerland and to form a correspondingly large network. Furthermore, there are many different nationalities represented within J&J, so you get in touch with people from all countries. I feel comfortable being part of the J&J corporate family. Despite my position as a trainee, I am valued and do not feel like a cheap labor. Back to my job as a mediamatician, I must mention that I can fall back on a great many learned skills from vocational school. For example, the Office 365 or Adobe skills. Other skills I have learned include photography and video editing. In my teaching job, I use my skills such as teamwork and curiosity.
