2. 1.) Resume Writing When writing a cover letter, make sure you have more of a YOU attitude rather than an I attitude.
3. 2.) Job Interviewing Bring a portfolio to show of your work. Always try to be a few minutes early. Leave your phone in your car. Do not bring in a bulky purse Bring a water bottle in case your throat becomes dry.
4. 3.) Job Searching When on the hunt for a job, always have an up to date resume prepared, even if you are not looking for work. Always stay current with the news in the area you want to work in and know who making the most impact in the PR industry at the time.
5. 4.) Creating and Sharing Your Portfolio Before a job interview, ask the interviewer what he or she would like you to include in your portfolio. Create a leave behind that includes some of the work you are most proud of.
