David's Answer

I did an internship with a publicity firm, Terry Hines & Associates, in San Francisco during my senior year of college at San Francisco State University. After the internship, the firm offered me a job, which I turned down to an internship in the story department at Phoenix Pictures. I was contacted by the coordinator of the internship in San Francisco, telling me there was a job opening at New Line Cinema, in the field publicity department. I applied for it, with her recommendation on my resume.

I went in for an interview with Gillian Fischer, VP of Field Publicity, who then hired me a couple days later.
