Internship At Imation Korea

Author: Carolyn Smith

Introduction

Internships are a necessary experience for any university or college student in order to apply their theoretical knowledge practically. The company chosen for internship was Imation Korea. This is one of the most successful data-storage-device companies in the Korea specifically and in the world generally. In the year 2007, the company recorded total revenue of about one point six billion dollars. It has over two thousand employees in over one hundred countries all over the world.

Description of the organization

Industry

The Company under consideration deals with the manufacture of hardware devices with removable storage. It therefore falls in the computer equipment and peripherals industry. However, manufacturing is not the only thing that the company deals with. It also handles product development, product sourcing, distribution and marketing of these storage products and devices. (Imation, 2008)

There are plenty of data storage manufacturers in the industry today. However, Imation tries its best to stay ahead of the competition through investment and dedication of its resources to innovation and development of its products. For example, one of the most recognized names in the CDs retail sector is Imation. This is because their CDs are well known for their high storage capacity and durability. They are also less susceptible to spoilage through dust or scratches. These qualities are continuously being improved by the company’s product development team.

The Company is also well know, it has established a strong brand image. This is the reason why most of its consumers stick to their name because they are loyal to the company. The Company’s name is unique and gives new purchasers an idea about what the company is selling.

Size

The Company is located in numerous states all over the world. The internship was done in Korea but its products are sold internationally. This is quite an advantage because the organization can appeal to numerous market segments. It is not just restricted to one locality that may be inhibited by certain social and economic factors. By having such a large size, the company can compensate for the inadequacies in one region by concentrating their sales in another location.

Shown above is a depiction of the company’s market share in different parts of the world. It has substantial influences in The United States because its headquarters are located there. Korea is also quite influential. The reason why most of the products are taken up Kenya is because there is less competition in that market. The US and UK have very many players in the data storage industry and this has affected the Company’s performance there.

Products

The various products manufacture by the company fall under different brands. These include MOBI 3000 Solid State Drives, PRO 7000 Solid State Drives, RDX CDs, RDX DVDs etc. In general, most of the products prepared by the Company fall under the following categories; Flash disks, DVDs, CDs, tape drives, floppy disks, Solid State Drives. These are media sources that have the capacity to store data. The data can be in any form be it a movie, music whether in MP3 format or otherwise, figures and charts, word documents and many other forms. (Imation, 2008)

Organizational culture

Imation Korea is a company that has a strong corporate culture. This is because all members of the various departments work hand in hand to ensure that the company achieves its objectives. The finance department coordinates with the production and innovation team. The Human resource sector also collaborates with al other branches to improve output. The marketing team is always doing surveys of what customers are looking for in their data storage products. It gives these suggestions to the product development team which then incorporates the into their work processes. Such high levels of cooperation have been the major cause of the introduction of Solid State Drives to the market.

History

The Company was started in the 90s when the technology bubble was growing. The company realized that there was a need to replace tapes as the most common form of data storage. Initially, it was known for the manufacture of temporary storage devices like floppy drives. With time, the company expanded to include more permanent data storage devices such as flash disks, CDs and DVDs. The latter markets grew because most people started discovering that they could save a lot of time and money by retrieving information from the internet and saving it into a device with removable storage. Many people started copying online articles, newspapers, movies, books and songs through these devices. Consequently, their market expanded and they now have a numerous segments to correspond to their clientele’s interests.

The company has been engaging in numerous expansions and mergers ever since. One of the latest ones is the merger it undertook with Memorex International Inc. This lead to the increment of the company’s assets and consequently its market share since the merger brought with it most of the clients that were loyal to Memorex International.

How l got the internship

The internship was acquired through application to the human resource team. There are vast resources on the internet about Imation Korea. Part of this information gave guidelines on how to apply for positions within the company whether temporarily as interns or permanently as employees. The website was www.imation.co . The reason why I chose this company was because it is an international company. This means that there are numerous business skills that can be acquired there especially in relation to international business and marketing. Besides this, the company engages in a lot of outsourcing and distribution. This implies that it is quite relevant to my business marketing major. On top of this, Imation Korea is an influential; force in its industry. Besides, it readily admits fresh individuals into its workforce as depicted from this graph (Imation, 2008)

Source; Indeed (2008): Imation company information; retrieved from Http://www.indeed.com accessed on 9th April

The application was done three months before the actual internship was to take place. This was to allow the company enough time to make selections. The Human resource manager gave me feedback after a few weeks before the internship began allowing me to join the company. The human resource manager requested to see me in order to asses whether l could fit into the organization. I reported to the human resource manager and after some questions, I was granted permission to join the company. This was after it had been confirmed that l was capable of fitting in with the organization.  I was given an acceptance letter, instructions about where l would be located and the time l was expected to report

Training and orientation

I was oriented by the Flash business team. This was a team that dealt with all the business aspects relating to flash storage media. (Imation, 2008)The team made sure that I was familiar with almost all aspects relating to the production of that particular item. First of all, I was given the work stations that I would be allowed to visit. I was allowed to seek information from the flash development team, the flash manufacturing section and the accounting section. I was also given a brief company history.

Afterwards, my responsibilities were laid out to me. This included highlighting some of the people I would be working with. There were to more students on internship at the company but they were not dealing with my particular area of study.

The flash development team continuously checked on my development and made sure that there was adequate progress in some the assignments I was given. They checked that I reported on time and left on time. Besides this, they gave me assistance on writing a weekly report for the company. This was mostly in relation to what I had done in the company.

Activities performed

I was expected to compile some of the information that had been previously acquired by the marketing segment concerning the company’s competitors. I was given specific topics such as competitor’s market shares. Here, I was supposed to compare other hardware device manufacturer’s market shares with Imation Korea’s. Some of the Companies I dealt with included Sony Company. (Imation, 2008)

I was also expected to deal with some of the financial and cash reserves needed to manufacture flash disks. Here, I worked in collaboration with my supervisors in the flash business team and also in the accounting section. The main purpose of this analysis was to determine whether the company was operating profitably in the manufacture of flash storage devices. Most of the research work was primarily done by the real employees of the company. I was simply expected to confirm some of the calculations and to put in some additional information.

I conducted some market strategy analyses under the supervision of the flash development team. For example, I did some porter generics strategy analyses for Imation Korea. This was achieved after incorporating knowledge from the other three departments I was supposed to work with. This was also topped up with a conduction of growth strategies. I was expected to make reports about some of the product diversification and intensification ideas that the company could take up.

Besides this, I was also expected to writer reports about the level of customer-product fit achieved by Imation Korea. In this analysis, I was expected to determine what the consumers in the market segments that Imation deals with want. I was then expected to examine the level of incorporation of these aspects in the manufacture of flash storage devices. For example, I identified that most people would like flash disks that are less susceptible to data loss. That is, they had to have an element of durability. I also found out that most customers prefer light material that does not compromise ion quality. By quality, this means that the flash disk had to have enough data saving space.

The flash business team deals with target market analysis. In this process, it was supposed to examine the following factors that affect the purchase of the flash devices; environmental factors, economic factors, opportunity, cultural factors. Under these, they examine;

• currency value
• GDP
• political trend
• trade tariffs
• legal factors
• diverse cultures in their markets

All the above information was already available at the Flash business team. All I was supposed to do in this case was to update it. Most of the information was for the last quarter. Under the guidance of the flash business team, I was to follow the pattern they had used before to come up with new figures for this particular session. In that way, I was able to learn the practical aspects of PESTLE and SWOT analyses.

I was also supposed to accompany the tem when they had to go and interview clients about the view on the prevailing Imation prices. I was given specific retail outlets that were well known for the sale of the products. Most of the interviews were conducted by the actual employees of the tem. My task was to note don what customers were commenting and to compile this information into the form of a report with the help of the flash business team. The Team guided me on which answers fell under which portfolio. For example customers who compared Imitation’s prices o other competitor’s prices were to be placed under the conformation price strategy. (Imation, 2008)

On top of these activities, I was also expected to handle the issue of branding. I accompanied my superiors during their surveys. Here, they asked customers about what they thought about the Imation brand and its products. Suggestions by the consumers were also obtained. Some customers gave new brands that the company could adopt. I worked hand in hand with the flash business team to make sure that all the information was written down. This was also supposed to be compiled in a report. This involved team work and I had been incorporated into that team.

The issue of price was revisited time and time again. Some of the aspects that I examined were

• quality
• supply
• economy
• demand

Quality of the flash drives was examined in two realms. The first was through their quality assurance section. It was found that they had achieved their objectives. On top of this, it was also examined from the consumer’s point of view. Here, consumers were expected to give their opinion about the products’ quality and what they would like to see changed. My task in this case was to review some of the responses given by consumers and organizing that information into easily usable reports. This work was not done on my own; it was mostly done with the help of the flash business team. (Imation, 2008)

Supply was to be examined through the raw materials that were to be used by the company. This information was already available in the procurement section of the company. My task was to assess whether the supply was adequate to deal with the company’ treat productions. It was found that this was the case.

I was also expected to determine whether there was a chance of determining whether the company was meeting their customer’s demands. This was done through surveys conducted by employees. My task was to write down what consumers were commenting during the surveys. I was also supposed to give the team assistance during compilation of demand trends.

Another aspect that I dealt with during the internship was the issue of communication. The flash business team had to make sure that communication was streamlined in two realms

• internally
• externally

Internal communication related to transference of information to members of the organization. This was normally done when my superiors required information form those departments in order to do some business analyses (Imation, 2008)

External communication was the main focus of the flash business team. This was because external communication dealt with the customer and the organization. The business team use different forms of communication to inform clients about new products, secure purchases and obtain feedback from them. The main form of communication that the team used was the internet. This was because they were able to get feedback for their clientele through their blogs. Imation also used a lot of posters and newspapers in their preparations. My task as an intern was to make suggestions for improvement of the company’s website. I was also expected to compile some of the customer suggestions made by consumers though the feedback blogs.

How my responsibilities relate to the major

My responsibilities were directly related to my major because they covered almost all the crucial areas in business marketing. I learnt about market analysis through the customer surveys I attended and the information collected for the company website. On top of this, I was able to apply my business communication skills when working with the team members and also with clients. The purpose pf product, pricing strategies was also put into the test during the internship. This is because part of my responsibility was to assess the effectiveness of some of these suggestions through customer responses.

I was also able to sharpen my market research skills and analysis skills. This is because market research was one driving force in Imation Korea. Most of their new products were introduced after customer surveys.

Defining moments in the internship

My most memorable moment in the internship occurred when the flash business team had been given a deadline by the company’s business team to give a report on the relationship between the internet purchases and the overall products made by the company. I had been looking at that report for two weeks under my direct supervisor. I therefore made my suggestions to the flash business team and to their surprise, I had written down almost all aspects of what was required. They simply polished some of the rough edges in the report and then handed it in.

Everyone kept thanking me about the way I had saved them this time. They kept congratulating me and telling me that l would become a very useful member of the team after completing my course. I felt appreciated and was grateful that a mere intern like me could be appreciated by such people.

Conclusion

Internship at Imation Korea was an enriching experience. It allowed me to work for an international organization with a diverse work force. The department I was given had a direct relationship to my major and I was glad that my efforts were appreciated by the entire team I would definitely want to go back to Imation to wok for them as a permanent employee.

Elizabethan Times Play

Author: Carolyn Smith

In this act the importance of friendship is depicted in two ways. First there is true friendship and bad friendship. In Portia and Bossanio this is not a true relationship as Bassanio is just befriending Portio because of the debts that he has and therefore he is after money. On the other hand Antonio shows true friendship when he tells Bassanio that he would lend him the money out of love but not because of business. Shylock also shows a feeling of love for humanity when he says that Christians and Jews should not hate each other because of their beliefs. Good friendship is like that of Antonio to Bassanio where he wants to assist him from his heart. Another kind of friendship is the one where Shylock suggests that Jews and Christians should love each other because this is all what human relationships entail. This is admirable as there should be no differences to make people fight(Janik 2003).

According to the speech shylock is hurt by the bad blood between the Christians and the Jews. He does not like the way the two groups feel happy when the other is suffering because they have grown together and have undergone the same problems. He feels that all people should bond as one because he does not like the existing relationship of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth (Janik 2003).

I feel sympathetic towards him because of the pain and agony in his heart as exposed in his speech. He regrets the fact that when the two groups wrong one another, they revenge, forgetting that they all should live as one.

The song makes the theme of the play clear. It starts with two questions and then the third line is a demand for an answer to allow for more reflection of the play. It has a high tone as can be seen in the third line where there is a demand for an answer. This depicts the intensity by which the actor would like the theme to be understood.

It has some questions which need answers as it is being sung so that the audience can reflect and change their actions for the good of the community.

Classics English Literature

Author: John Warren

INTRODUCTION:

Love as a subject of study in its entirety can be a very broad subject. However, depending on what a student or a researcher wants to know concerning the subject the field of study may be limited. You can study love in psychology, philosophy, literature, or sociology but the depth of he study will depend on the field.

Thus, love could be defined in two broad ways. One is the interpersonal type of love and the impersonal type of love. Interpersonal love is the kind of love we have for different human beings while impersonal love covers the way we feel about other animals, countries, meals e. t. c.

ANALYSIS:

The four articles represent different dimensions of love; they portray the way love is disseminated to different persons. In this type friendship type of love has been analyzed, consummate love is also highlighted, romantic love; empty love and infatuation have all been addressed.

No thank you john depicts some kind of romantic love gone sour. Thus, john is told in Sara Whittier’s 101 classic love songs “I dare say Meg or Moll would take Pity upon you, if you’d ask: And pray don’t remain single for my sake who can’t perform that task”

This is because john is being asked to forget what he thinks is his true love. On the other hand, fairy tales and a dose of reality as well as the true love depict a form of love that combines intimacy, passion and commitment. These are examples of companionate love. this is reflected for example in true love where the narrator claims “Despite cigarette cough, tooth decay, acid indigestion, dandruff, and other features of married life that tend to dampen the fires of passion,

We still feel something we can call True love”. Fairly tales and a dose of reality reflect the changing patterns of love over the years. Although it does not give a perfect example, it gives an outline of the general situation.

‘The other two’ displays different dimensions of love. In the first case, the story gives us the impression that Alice is a corporate wife. This is indicated by statements made by Mr. Waythorn concerning her personality. This, emphasized from two contexts in Edith Wharton’s ‘the other two’ where, firstly Waythorn realizes that his wife was “as easy as an old shoe”. In addition, this shoe had been worn by too many feet. in addition his wife’s elasticity was as a  result of tensions in many different directions.( Alice Hackett – Alice Vatic – Alice Waythorn) – Alice had left a little of her personality and privacy to each of the three men. This convinces us that Alice’s third marriage had no intimacy or passion only commitment was there.  This is an example of empty love. However, Alice felt passionate for Vatic. Thus, we could assume that Alice was still infatuated with varick.

At the closing moments of the other two Waythorn takes his cup and laughs. Waythorn is probably laughing at himself since he had not taken into account all the issues that were mentally disturbing him. These, confirmed by his second realization when he claims, “He had fancied that a woman can shed her past like a man” in Edith Wharton’s the other two. Now he saw that Alice was bound to hers both by the circumstances, which forced her into, continued relation with it, and by the traces, it had left on her nature. With grim irony, Waythorn compared himself to a member of a syndicate. He held so many shares in his wife’s personality and his predecessors were his partners in the business. If there had been any element of passion in the transaction, he would have felt less deteriorated by it. The fact that Alice took her change of husbands like a change of weather reduced the situation to mediocrity. He could have forgiven her for blunders, for excesses; for resisting Hackett, for yielding to varick; for anything but her acquiescence and her tact. She reminded him of a juggler tossing knives; but the knives were blunt and she knew they would never cut her”.

A half-step on the piano keyboard is from one key very next key. The Circle of 5ths begins on C. Ascending up the keyboard from Middle C in 5ths we find Major Key Signatures from 0 to 6 Sharps. Descending down the keyboard from Middle C we locate Major Key Signatures from 0 to 7 Flats. It is a circle because the consecutive order of perfect 5ths repeats itself. Each of the 12 Major (and Minor Keys) are built on a note that is in the Circle of 5ths.

In any Major or Minor Key Signature there is one Tonic note, one Dominant note, one Subdominant note and their corresponding chords. We call these primary chords I, V, and IV.

Take the simple melody, Deck the Halls, lots of kids enjoy playing this piece of the holidays, usually in the key of C. By the second year of piano many students are able to play in a number of hand positions and thus could probably transpose this melody others keys such as F Major and G Major. But the fun part of transposition is in creating a smooth transition from one key to the next without stopping the song and starting over.

Following the Circle of 5th students can learn to quickly identify the Dominant note in each key and the Dominant Chord. By walking the melody to the Dominant note of the new key and then to its Leading Tone and Tonic note, the melody quickly arrives in a new key that sounds like the same song, but in a new voice. This variation of the melody adds interest to compositions and gives students a fun and motivating reason to learn to play in new key signatures. The variation can return to the original key in the same way.

In this way piano students can Scale the heights of Piano Land fighting evil and seeking goodness in every key around the Circle of 5ths, and always find their way back home again! http://www.giftsparadise.ca

Learn And Teach Me My Love, I Will Learn

Author: Uzochukwu N Azuonwu

I had looked around the world

I had searched around me

I had seen many beautiful ladies

I had receive letters of love

I had received calls sounding love

But out of my searching,

I found no girl like you.

I think about you only and daily

The love letters I received,

Only yours I had approved

I am ready to write a reply to you

I will open the door of my heart to let you in

For you to walk in and walk out freely  

But tell me,

Do I really know you before now?

What is your name? I wish to know

Could you please tell me the title of your love?

Well come in first so you could sit down and have yourself  

Be happy for me always.

I need to teach and learn from you

You need to learn from me as I wish

We could learn our feelings

I need to know why you loved for you had shown love to me more than I can tell.

I wish I could know all about you

Give me your laws and rules   

That I might keep them and

That I might not fall

And have myself fractured.

By the grace of God my creator

Things I love are many,

Things I do cherish are more than I can tell

Though I love many I hate too many things

There is nothing I hate than lying, gossip, blackmail, immoral acts …

I love to sing lovely songs to God

I love to sing melody mixed with joy for the Father,

I disgust problems and war

I hate seeing my woman crying.

My parents are as it befit

I took them as my second creator

Love them just for mine sake

My handsome brother is here for me,

What about my beautiful sisters,

I care for them all, really I do

Love them for me and take them as yours,

That I might be happy

Care for them so could be with you for the rest of my life

I am a gentle boy,

I love and admire good things so much

I also love to be happy

I deserve kindness

I admire peace and gentleness,

What could be your problem?

Tell me that I may know and absent from your unhappiness

What do you love eating most and what you admire most?

Happy marriage is a good understanding…

Without good understanding two could not be one

Successful marriage is happiness

Unhappiness leads to war and crises

But God blesses marriage,

Be my love am your love.

Welcome into my life,

A life designed by God

Ordained for happiness and joy

Welcome to my world

The domain of praises,

The kingdom of kindness

Show me your love

Teach me

I am ready to learn from you my princesses

You are beautiful and wonderful.

You could make me your king

I have made you my queen

Be with me and

Spend the rest of your life with me

Let study ourselves and live a happy life

Worship God the father in truth and in love.

Artist: Brandon Wilde (Brooklyn, NY) Song: Deep Blue Secret Project 01 : Musician 01 Brandon talks about going first… I got the guitar, and then I realized there’s a responsibility in leading it off. I know that this guitar is going to places I couldn’t have even dreamed of. Then, I don’t know where I was, but something was coming to me, and I remember feeling this is the song I’m going to write for the project. I started working on it, and I struggled. In mind it was so simple, but now that I was writing it, I couldn’t come up with the lyrics. I realized it was going to be a struggle and I got worried and I thought, "Maybe I should be writing a rock song." And "Maybe this isn’t the song." All those things you think, but in the end, I just wrote what was coming out of me. I think this project gives musicians a chance to grow. Without a doubt, we all need to be pushed to write songs more often.

Bass Guitar for Beginners

Author: James L. Preston

Bass guitar looks like an electric guitar but they have longer neck and scale length and with four, five or six strings. A lot of well-known and successful bans have bass guitar in their group. This instrument often holds the music together whether it provides the low-end notes or the rhythmic pulse that drives the music forward. Although mastering the bass guitar may take years of practice and playing, there are tips that should give you a concrete foundation from which to build your knowledge of the instrument technique and theory.

The first thing you should do is to get to know your instrument. Here are the basic parts of your bass guitar:

• Strings. The strings of the bass guitar produce vibration to produce sound. The usual bass guitar has four strings. Each has a different note value. In standard tuning, the bass guitar strings are tuned as follows: E is the thickest string and closest to your chest when playing; A is slightly thinner than an E; D is thinner than the second one and third string away from your body; G is the thinnest among the four strings and the closest to the floor when playing.
• Frets. If the strings divide the guitar from left to write, frets are small metal strips that divide the bass guitar into sections from top to bottom. Looking at your guitar from the top, you can see that the strings and frets form certain grid that covers the entire neck of the instrument. Putting your finger on a string, in between two frets will enable you to play a note. The lower your get on the frets, the lower the note sounds. In general, each fret is a half step higher than the previous one.
• Amplification. Amplification is needed in order to hear the sounds that are coming out of your bass guitar. This is not needed for an Upright Bass or an Acoustic Bass Guitar. If an electric guitar uses a pickup to capture the vibrations of the strings and an amp to convert them into sound, a bass guitar also needs an amplifier in order for a player to hear what they’re playing. If you don’t have one, you need to buy or borrow one. Though it is possible to play the bass guitar through a normal guitar amplifier, the quality of the sound will be greatly reduced and you will endanger your amp. Amplifiers that are specifically made for bass guitars have larger, heavy duty loud speakers to compensate the low-frequency sound waves the bass guitar produces.

Other Parts:

• Body. Body is the large base of the guitar and the most bulky part. This is attached to the neck.
• Neck. This is the long, thin part of the instrument that contains the frets and strings and where the fingers are placed to play a note.
• Headstock. The top-most part of the instrument where the four tuning pegs are found.
• Nut. This is a little piece of material that is seen where the headstock meets the neck. There are usually four small grooves carved out in order to direct the strings up to the tuning pegs.
• Tuning Pegs. These hold the strings in place and allow the player to adjust the pitch of the string.
• Pick-ups. These are metal strips that catch the vibrations of the strings and aids in the conversion into electrical signals that are then amplified.

This is a song I wrote a while back (2009) which was supposed to be performed by my band The Project That Currently Has No Name (Got together in 2010, broke up in 2011), that was finally finished and rerecorded by me now in 2012. It’s a song about all those little happy memories that make it so hard to let go of someone you used to love, even when the writing has been on the wall so long that the flood has already eroded it away. I hope you enjoy it.

Am I Too Old to Start Playing Guitar

Author: Erica Mills

There are millions of people out there who play the guitar in some form. Whether it is acoustic or electric, professionally or as a hobby, you’ll see that each person has a different story to tell regarding when and why he started playing. For some people, playing the guitar is a way to become famous and get noticed, for others – it is a way to earn money, for a third group of people it is a way to have fun, and for another one – it’s just a long forgotten dream coming true. But what’s common between all of these people is that they are guitar players.

There are guitarists of all ages and skills out there, so it doesn’t matter how old you are. As long as you feel the need of playing guitar, just go to the nearest music store, grab one and start doing it. Yes, the age may affect your ambitions. It’s much harder to get noticed if you are 50 than if you were 20, simply because people naturally admire the young talent, BUT it’s not impossible. The main priority that age gives you is that you have gained some experience in life and thus – you have some stories to tell in your music. And when the songs you write come from your heart, based on these stories and lifetime experiences, they sound much more honest and sincere, and the audience can sense that.

Just be realistic about your ambitions. Play for the fun of playing and not for the possibility of becoming famous and earning millions. Play from your heart and express your true feelings. Improve your guitar technique, so that it allows you to play what you feel. You have to understand that you don’t have to be a guitar god to do that, but it’s really bad if you don’t have the elementary guitar skills to express yourself, so learn the basic stuff and build foundations on which you can rest.

Still not convinced? OK then, let’s leave music and talk about life as a whole. We do have only one conscious life, don’t we? Nobody knows what happens after that. Some say we are reborn, some say we just die – it doesn’t really matter, because whatever happens after death, you don’t remember anything from what it was before that. That’s why we should never give up our dreams and we have to try everything that we wanted to try, whether it is learning to play the guitar, asking the girl you have never had the courage to ask before to go out with you, or anything else. This is YOUR life, it IS only one, so don’t waste it in hesitation, asking yourself stupid questions whether you should do something or not. Just go out there and do it!
