The last Task (Translate English press release to Arabic)

In this task I had to translate an English press release to Arabic. As a beginning I read the press release it was seven paragraphed about Harbor Real Estate sign an Memorandum of understanding to offer advanced Real Estate training programs. I tried to understand what the topic and the press release talking about. After getting the idea I started to translate each paragraph alone and get the best explanation that I could have. It wasn’t that hard to me to do this task because Arabic is my mother language and it easy for me to have the best sentences, but the difficulties that I had face is some English words that I didn’t understand so I had to search for their meaning and as an advantage I learned new words. Finally, it wasn’t hard it was exciting because I had to do something as a change from long time I didn’t do it.

Media List

Today I worked in the online media list its very similar to the magazine list, I had to check the emails of the people who’s in charge of receiving the press releases. Some of the online magazines I checked in their website and I found the emails and others I couldn’t find any contact information so I had to send email to the one that I have and check if it’s the right one or not. Added to that, many of the magazines have contact numbers then emails which I had to call them and ask for the email that we can send our press releases too. It was an easy task, but what I didn’t like is how people treat you they don’t have any professionalism spicily the Managers. In the last point I think an online magazine has to update their contact list and add more information for their customers to make it easy for them.

Task 5 (magazines list)

As I started working in this task it was very easy and it doesn’t need researching or reading. This task was more interested than the others because I had to communicate with people which are my favorite thing to do. The meaning of magazine list is a contact list of real estate property magazine with many details like journalist’s names, positions, numbers, fax and emails I had to update this information and check some of them also, complete some missing information for some of the magazines. In the beginning I organized the magazines and I wrote what the information that I needed for example, the editor information in each magazine and who is in charge of receiving the property press releases. However, when I started calling some of the people was very helpful and many of them were very rood anyway what were important to me to get what I want. Added to that, I had some difficulties of finding some information like contact numbers, but I sorted out by emailing the editors. It was very excited to work in this task because it’s a good practice to learn how it’s important to organize different contact list and how we deal with people.

Website templates

After I finished my third task I didn’t start directly in the fourth one because the details explanation in my task was not ready, anyway what I did in this three days is searching through the internet for website templates or taking ideas about how professional websites looks like to help Harbor in their new project which is creating three website for three different companies. As in my experience of creating website is that website should be organized and having a creative template, but what I think is that not necessary that this two things will make the website successful because if the website are nice viewing maybe the information and the navigation in the web might not be useful or clear which will cause less viewers and losing customers. For example, I was visiting chanel website they have great template professional features, but it was very hard to me to navigate in the website it was very complicate to find what I was looking for. So website is not easy to create people has to have a plane to cover all of the point that people care to see or what they expected to see.
