Last week I had the opportunity to go to the National PRSSA Conference. It was such a wonderful experience! I realized how many different roads you can take to get a great job in PR. There are so many different fields of study, that there is sure to be something that interests everyone.
Before the conference I had a few ideas of where I wanted to work, but nothing was absolute. I really became interested in entertainment and event planning after the PR conference. I love how each day would be something new, and you never would know what to expect. There is no way to define a “typical day.”
I had the chance to listen to several professional in the PR field, such as Arianna Huffington, the woman who started the Huffington Post. I also was able to listen to the director of Disney, where I learned the history behind this multi-billion dollar company, and their plans for the future.
It was good to see that all these professionals were once in the same position that I am today. PR is a competitive and challenging field, but also a very growing and exciting field. I am looking forward to graduation and my future in public relations.
