HOW I LANDED MY FIRST PR GIG – A GUIDE FOR BEGINNERS

Interested in a career in public relations (PR)? Whether you’re a student wondering what it would take to start your career upon graduation, or you’re considering a career move from your current job to PR practice, you could learn a few important tips from my personal experience.
