need opinions on what to do for an internship?
I am a marketing major. This is my last quarter and I am to do an internship for a class as a grade and to also gain experience.

My current internship position is for a small dress company in the fashion district of New York City. I am a production and logistics intern. Where I help with showroom things like making sure space is clean and tidy and dresses are well kept and look nicely hung, etc. for potential clients who come in. I also travel to Brooklyn to help package orders at the factory. I have been running errands, and doing footwork for the supervisors there. I am somewhat like Anne Hathaway in The Devil Wears Prada.

I am not quite sure if I want to pursue a career in this as it is very demanding and I have a 5 month old baby. I am not even sure what job titles I would even be able to apply for after the internship at this small business is completed. I believe production or logistics, pr, marketing manager, project manager, would be some of the titles. Are there any someone knows of?

Then there is another internship where I have the opportunity to develop a twitter and facebook account for, manage, and promote another company in that way. As well as answer phones and do administrative duties. I am sure I will meet many company owners and clients and can network myself through them also.

I am not quite sure with an internship like the second what job titles I would be able to get. Does anyone know?

Lastly, I am torn between to stay at the dress company or go to the one dealing with the social media. I want to stay at one that will give me a better chance at job opportunities upon completion.
Which do you think would look better on a resume? Any tips or advice on what I should do?

I greatly appreciate the time and effort. If I could meet yous I would give you a big kiss!! ha ha

Hi, thanks for answering my question. That was really a good piece of advice.
According to me social media is a better option that the dress company,
Balancing your time between your baby and job is really difficult but at the same time both are important. What ever happens never leave your hope and try to manage things.
The second choice for internship seems to be a good option as you will gain experience in various fields at the same time.

All The Best.
