"After spending only 4 months of my 2nd year university work placement module with Graz, I already felt like I gained years worth of experience. Instead of just shadowing roles like you would in a normal internship, Graz sits by you and spends the time teaching you how a PR company works and shows you the skills you will need. The one to one time with someone that knows so much about the industry is invaluable. Working with real life clients and experiences such as brand launches really pushes your learning to the next level. I left Obsession PR with a great portfolio, valuable insights, industry knowledge and of course a friend."

"Working at Obsession PR gave me an incredible insight into the creative world of PR, fashion and the media. I was lucky enough to gain hands on experience in every aspect of the business including writing press releases, pitching ideas, liaising with clients and journalists and gaining media exposure through the use of different media strategies. From contacting celebrities to creating content and social media campaigns, the nature of this work was truly creative, varied and insightful. An experience I learnt so much from and would highly recommend to anyone who wants to get a real taste of the fashion PR world! Thank you Graz!"

"I spent nearly a year with Graz at Obsession PR when I was fresh out of university. From day 1, I felt like I was a valued member of the team, doing real work and getting real results for clients. I gained insight in to the industry and day to day running of an exciting boutique PR agency, as well as solid experience in all aspects from social media, pitching to journalists, writing press releases and meeting with clients. Working with Graz one on one was invaluable and I left with an impressive portfolio of all the press coverage I had achieved during my time there."
