Our intern Nadja – says some nice things about her time at Top Left Design

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

Our last intern, Nadja (from Germany), was with us for the month of September. She was fantastic, and we were impressed by her speed of learning, efficiency and attention to detail. Perfect TLD material, but she is back in Germany now. Below are her lovely comments about her time with us! We are sad she has gone but happy she could spend September with us!

“The team of Top Left Design is young, dynamic and very open minded and it was easy to get along with everybody. The team was so friendly and even thought of my birthday.
I was really impressed how quick the employees of Top Left Design could work with the graphic programs, I learned so much about using those programs faster by applying short cuts.
The whole team thought me so much only by analyzing my design work, giving me advice and making me think farther so that I could improve a lot of my designs.
It was a great pleasure to work at Top Left Design, the working atmosphere was very harmonic and sometimes pretty funny.
I really enjoyed my time and loved the work and I hope I’ll have the chance to come back someday. Working at Top Left Design encouraged me to be on the right way in life.”

Maja our intern – her goodbye letter to us!

Sunday, May 10th, 2009

Our last intern Maja who came from Germany has now left us – sad!
We asked her to write about her experience and this is what she said:

“When I heard about my internship in web design I was a little bit afraid, because I’ve never worked with HTML and web design before. But in the end I enjoyed it and I now know more about web design and how to present the designs to clients.
To be honest – this is my first internship that I really enjoyed. The whole team was very friendly and open minded and it was a very relaxed atmosphere. I even had my own computer – that was great!

The special things I have learnt whilst on my internship were:

Using Adobe Photoshop, Macromedia HomeSite, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Indesign
How to make a gradient (using Layers) [ Photoshop]
How a website is designed in Photoshop then built in HTML (Footer, Top, Navigation, font size & Home and Inner, Templates) [ Photoshop & HomeSite]

I had a lot of projects, which was very good – so I could do a lot of designs which made me very happy. Sometimes I thought I was very helpful, so I hope at the end I was very useful to your company.

Every day I tried my best and the whole time in the internship was a very good experience for me. Thank you for giving me a lot of different projects to work on. This was very good and has built on my experiences.

I wish I could stay longer in your company because it was a really good time for me. I really liked this internship. This was the best internship I’ve ever had (seriously!).

In the past the other internships were not as good as here, because the atmosphere was not as good….a couple of my bosses were uptight and not good-humoured like you and your team are.

It was a great time at Top Left Design for me!”
