If you can intern somewhere else, please do so. DO NOT join this program. It was a reality show, seriously disgusting. For starters, this program is an illusion. We were brought in as the best journalists in our class but we were treated like children. Lectures were on how to use our phones to film, editing on Premiere Pro, how to take good shots, etc. All things we already knew how to do as seniors. No hands on learning, no useful tools like how to use inews or other Adobe programs. There was no consistency and no drive from guest lectures to see us grow. We were assigned to create content for Univision markets and our performance would be graded on that except the majority of the markets did not give us assignments and when they did, it was busy work (if you even got that lucky). They did not care about our growth. Program leaders and professors would subtly pin us against each other to create content on our own except even when we did, our markets didn't want it neither did the Miami market. We would push social campaigns, come up with ways to bring our generation to our platform but no one cared about it. Instead, all of the work went into a tracker that was ultimately for show. Even our professor told us it was for show so that the programs creator would look good at the end for the donors and the heads of the company. Disgusting. The only thing I learned from this experience is what to expect from a toxic work culture in this industry. PLEASE if you can intern somewhere else do so, if you can write for the school's news platforms even better. THIS PROGRAM IS NOT WORTH IT.

I don’t think I could have been more lucky to have found Univision. It was so much fun working there. If you have an issue in your department someone is always there to support you and bounce ideas back at you. They  also will listen to your ideas and a lot of times let you run with them. The team or family as I like to call it, was so amazing I rarely felt like I was working. If your  creative and want to be in that type of environment you should jump to work there. Pay was good benefits were awesome. They offer tuition reimbursement for classes in your field. Management and co-workers are also more than happy to teach you more about your department or theirs. Making it so easy to grow with Univision. This is also what makes the product so much better and builds pride in yourself and in the product you help create. Which may I say  makes it impossible to feel bad about working there. Now you probably won’t walk in the door and feel the family thing instantly but trust me it’s there. If you get the opportunity to work for them I say do it. Trust me you’ll love it and never want to leave. Now I should say it’s a job NOT a fantasy land there are  bad days but it’s rare. Usually it’s because of circumstances outside of Univision’s control. Your family there will always have your back because they also want you to be happy and proud. I can not say it enough  Amazing people Amazing place. 

Univision does a great job of creating great content and keeping you informed of whats up and coming but completely breaks down implementation with no support. You can sell the products but when it comes time to implement there is a skeleton digital team, local team, finance team and traffic/contract team. What this means is as much as you want this to work the follow-up with all fall you on. Departments do not communicate so you can turn in payments, turn in contracts, turn in digital orders but when it comes time to implement things fall apart and are not implemented leaving you to do triple work on the same deal or payment application and leaving limited time to make new calls. For someone who are go getters there are work arounds but there recent "commission restructuring" makes the financial pay not worth all the extra work you have to do. 

Aside from general assignment reporting daily, my position with Univision Philadelphia allowed me to focus on stories more in depth. I was often required to execute investigative reports that required more time and dedication. 
The close ties with the community provided exclusive leads most days. With some editorial duties as part of my experience there, I was able to make ethical decisions on demand in terms of coverage. 

	Delivered daily live reports successfully from the field using LiveU 
	Filled in as Anchor for 6pm and 11pm newscasts as needed
	Ability to communicate fluently in both English/Spanish landed me exclusive leads and interviews often
	Produced/wrote (clearly/factually) show rundown & scripts (translation from English required daily)
	Followed reliable leads in order to capture the stories which make Spanish networks competitive
	Served as one of the administrators of social media and station website content
	Assigned as liaison with WPVI 6ABC Action News & reported in English on stories when requested

You're treated from the door as being easily dispensable. There is no support or understanding for a life/work balance. The environment was comfortable and relaxed, maybe too much. More structure would've allowed management to see who the slackers were and who the good employees were. Managers would eliminate employees without warning or reason and just replace them with someone else, paying the new employee less. This occurred multiple times during my tenure and got worse after I left. This led to a very uncomfortable work environment for everyone. They show no appreciation for exemplary employees and often speak only of themselves and their accomplishments. The pay was competitive but not worth it. The benefits were horrible, expensive healthcare and  infrequent annual raises, weather or not a 401k match will be awarded is a year by year determination and time off is typical, with the exception of no one will cover your work load when you are gone so to take time off is more of a hassle then its worth.

As an account executive with Univision, no one day would ever be the same. I was on the outlook for new business every day, prospecting and seeing new clients. I would also serve and maintain my existing clients and accounts.
I learned that success is a result of perseverance and burning desire.
Working with a large group to make projects, events, and Expos come together was a valuable experience that I would love to repeat. Working in a professional setting with professional peers helped us achieve goals and grow together.
The most difficult challenge as an AE was placing myself in positions where I would be uncomfortable. I knew that if I continued to work outside of my comfort zone, my skills as a sales person and as an AE would improve.
The most enjoyable part of being an AE was closing deals, making sure my client was satisfied, and the opportunity to do more business.

Responsible to oversee live newscasts and for the recording of news feeds, taking transmitter readings and alerting station engineers of potential problems or issues concerning transmitters and antennas for the affiliate stations. 

Co-workers were very friendly and helpful.
The most enjoyable part of the job was being a part of a growing television company and working in the control room.
The hardest part of the job was not always having the best equipment to do our job more efficiently.

A typical day at work was usually very challenging, however for those of us that love challenges, specially creative challenges while in a business environment  that felt like family. It was great. To this day, the Univision art department feels like family to me. I continued to learn a lot about the corporate world and communication among department. The most challenging part of the job was the fast growth of the division it grew from 7 employees to approximately 70 artist and designers within a year and a half. The most enjoyable part of the job was each time we finished a great production project, the great sense of accomplishment and success among all creative personnel, to know it was done as a team each time more efficiently.
To see quality and ratings go higher on the air because of all of our efforts as a team.    

Since 2010, I’ve worked as the web publisher for Univision’s online properties in Los Angeles. In that capacity, I produced and crated content for five websites and contributed to shaping their content strategy with weekly and monthly traffic reports. During my tenure I’ve gained the trust and respect of both my direct managers at Univision Interactive, as well as my day-to-day colleagues at Univision Interactive Media and Univision Radio and TV. I’m highly proficient with our digital publishing and online traffic tools, while my organizational skills have allowed me to effectively lead the online extensions of important company initiatives such as the upcoming H20 Music Festival and the yearly St. Jude’s Radiothon. I have a degree in Communications from the Universidad Central de Venezuela and a certificate from UCLA’s Journalism Extension Program.
