To Blue Pie Staff & Team:
Working at Blue Pie was a rewarding experience during which I gained valuable insight into marketing and the music industry. I learned worthwhile skills that I carry on in my career today. I appreciate the knowledge I gained working with Damien and managing the team. My role at Blue Pie included everything from executing EDM campaigns, developing social media content, data management in CRM systems, writing copy and client communications, to managing the day-to-day operations within the office and recruiting & training interns.
It was also a positive, fun culture that allowed me the autonomy to try new solutions and approaches.
Hi Blue Pie Team
I was selected as an intern for Blue Pie Records in 2014. It was one of the best learning experiences in my career.
Damien was a great mentor and gave me some key knowledge that is hard to find in the workforce; with his skills he trained and prepared me for my roles in media and marketing.
I am very grateful for his help and accepting me into this internship and I would definitely recommend it to anybody looking for a platform to develop and strengthen their networking skills and to find your passions and succeed in them.
To Blue Pie Staff & Team:
I would like to thank the Blue Pie Team for the opportunity to do my internship. I was at Blue Pie from 24th May to 31st August 2016. I was able to work in a sector that I want to develop my career around in Social Media and Marketing.
Being part of this team was rewarding. It allowed me to improve my skills.
My supervisors were always kind and very helpful. They always gave us good advice for our current work but also for our professional future. There was such a good atmosphere at work always. We were allowed to work autonomous and manage our own workflows.
We learnt how to work well without being stressed. Everybody was friendly and very helpful.
To Blue Pie Crew:
I’d just like to thank you for the opportunity you gave me to work with Blue Pie.
I truly enjoyed myself and found the experience much more valuable than anything I’d done in the past. I’m looking forward to coming back and working for you again! I will be sending as many artists that I can to Blue Pie.
Thanks for everything and I look forward to be associated with Blue Pie for many years.

The best part about working at Blue Pie was the people I got to work with during my time in Sydney. They made it a pleasure to come to work each day.
Despite being one of just two interns at Blue Pie, there was a family atmosphere amongst all the interns, and it made even the difficult days a little bit easier. Oh, and free beer on Friday afternoons didn’t hurt either.
To Blue Pie Staff & Team:
Doing an Internship in here was an undoubtedly rewarding experience.
It was a real pleasure to work with everyone; the team is superb. The friendly environment is a major asset allowing people to feel comfortable to ask for help and to help others. It’s really teamwork.
The ambiance here is the best and you are sure to feel always welcome. The tasks given during my internship as Social Media Manager were always diversified and well chosen that meant my days were always full.
I have learned so much and developed a real insight of music industry. Each day I learnt a lot of new things improving my skills concerning the promotion of social media, music entertainment and managing people.
This experience has definitively helped my career prospects in a big way. Big hearts my Blue Pie family. Thank you for this rewarding internship
To Damien and The Team:
After my three months working at Blue Pie Productions as an intern I have found Blue Pie to have a genuine concern in training me in the use of the various software platforms used at Blue Pie for the coding and distribution of the music licensed by Blue Pie.
Damian Reilly has been devoting himself to assisting the interns at Blue Pie to become industry ready and has given me invaluable further office skills training which has enabled me to gain the necessary knowledge and abilities for me to obtain further employment in an admin office environment.
I recommend Blue Pie Productions as a great place to gain skills, experience and a great social atmosphere that makes it a pleasure to arrive. I am living proof the company gets real jobs for interns as I am now the employed Admin Manager for the company.
To Damien and The Team:
My time working at Blue Pie Records was fantastic. I really gained an immense amount of experience in both the music business as well as PR, which I wouldn’t have gotten anywhere else. Everyone at Blue Pie was wonderful and made my short time working in Australia a blast.
To Damien and The Team:
I want to say how much I enjoyed the 6 months I spent at Blue Pie and hope that I was able to achieve everything you wished. I thoroughly enjoyed my work and very much appreciated the great environment you have created.
Blue Pie has helped me to develop my business skills by teaching me correct and precise reporting processes that have allowed me to maximise efficiency in my workflow. Also I have learned how to use many programs that will optimise my performance in any future role I may work in.
Thanks so much and you have a great company and team at Blue Pie
To Damien and The Team:
Worked in the company was a such a great experience for me, I have learned a lot about music things and how to deal with pressure of social media. Now i can say that i have experience about database of artists as well with a very complete program.
I really appreciate the opportunity that Damien gave to me to learn and to be prepared for a job in the music world. I really liked to be here. Thanks so much!
To Blue Pie Staff & Team:
The experienced i gain while working at Blue Pie was one chance in a million, Australia is a beautiful country but is very hard to find a place which gives you the opportunity to learn and to understand and to develop my skills in the music industry.
The Australian market and opportunity was amazing and a great time my life, thanks for everything. I love being with you.
To Damien and The Team:
Blue Pie Records was my first step towards my music-marketing career. The experience I gained from my three-month internship was extremely valuable, and provided me with a foot in the door of the industry.
During my internship I was involved in social media content management, media blogging, metadata coding, training and development of other interns, and general administration duties. Working with a small, close-knit team was very rewarding as we were able to work both together and autonomously.
I am very grateful to the Blue Pie team and highly recommend this label to any music lovers who want to enter the music industry and see what happens behind the scenes.
To Damien and The Team:
Working in Blue Pie was an interesting experience. I learnt many things that increase my view of the industry.
I gain and expand my skills in many areas such as researching, data entry, content coding, social media, basecamp and etc. I also experienced working and socialising with co-workers and peers, talking and helping each other out.
This internship helped me realised how hard and rewarding working as an individual and as a team in a professional environment is; communication is key to success.
To Damien and The Team:
I would say I learn couple of new things during my time working there as I have never worked at a music company before. I learnt how an independent label works, bits of how they sign the artist and produce the album.
I learn bits about content coding and how news story is made and how to make one. Furthermore, I found out a lot of interesting, fresh Jazz bands around the world not realising there are tons of independent bands out there that are brilliant!.
To Damien and The Team:
The days I worked at Blue Pie Records were really fulfilling. I have certainly improved the skills below thanks to the company’s attentive and friendly supports. And I am honoured to get involved with one of the company’s main projects, DJ Central, which is a cutting-edged global music media.
I will restart working in the Japanese music industry soon, so it will be great if I can keep in touch with Blue Pie Records, and also keep good relationship to work globally each other.
To Damien and The Team:
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to work at Blue Pie for the past three months. During my time working here I have really enjoyed coming in to the office and working with all the great new friends I’ve met and had the pleasure of collaborating with on a variety of different projects.
I have picked up so many new skills and learned how to use all the programs available to make social media advertising more efficient and easy. I’m very glad I got the opportunity to gain all this new knowledge as I know it will help me significantly in my future career endeavours and greatly appreciate the friendliness of everybody here.
To Damien and The Team:
My experience with Blue Pie was great. I saw how international labels works and discovered other interesting tools of promotion. Further I listened a lot of new artists and music from all around the world and found some really great talents! Definitely an important step to internationalise your curriculum.
To Blue Pie Staff & Team:
I just wanted to say a big thank you. The last 3 months as an intern at Blue Pie has been a wonderful experience.
The lessons and skills I have learned throughout that period have been invaluable and will undoubtedly assist me in my future endeavours in the business and music worlds.
I’ve had such a fun time with everyone and leave knowing that I’ve made many awesome memories with my new friends. I wish everyone the best and I look forward to visiting and seeing you all again soon!
