>> Yeah. For a student who's interested in a PR field, one of the best things
that they can do is get involved in professional or student chapters
of professional organizations, like PRSA,
International Association of Business Communicators.
Another thing they can do is knock on the doors and try and get some internships.
So an internship is really a way to get to know a company.
It's a way for them to get to know you.
And in most of the companies where I've worked, we've often hired the interns that have come
through our doors because at the end of a six-month period, you really know if you
like them and they know if they like you.
So an internship is one of the best ways to get out and get some experience
and open a door for yourself in terms of a job.
I think some of the most important things that you can put
on a resume would be some actual accomplishments.
So different resumes get structured in different ways.
Some people start with a chronological, they start by years.
But what I really would recommend that students do is take a look at their resume and look
at the things that they've accomplished
that can show a prospective employer the things that you've done.
What have you written?
What research skills do you have?
What about your background brings something to the table or to the job
that can make a difference and be an asset to an organization?
