PR is very reactive. My constant desire to consume information keeps me on top of the latest current affairs and celebrity news. Working in PR requires constant attention to changes in the media and awareness of those in the public eye.
PR is about communication. Maintaining good relationships with target media is extremely important. I have various media contacts from my previous PR roles and still get in touch with them regularly to keep my name fresh in their minds. I have effective writing and discursive skills which are important when trying to pitch a product or idea to the press in hopes of media coverage.
PR is creative. As an enthusiastic individual with excellent writing skills I am able to think on my feet and react quickly. I have a range of innovative ideas which I would love to put forward in a professional environment. My previous experience means that I am used to working on creative ideas in a team environment as well as looking after projects on my own.
PR is busy. Organisation is one of my key strengths; working in PR requires you to stay on top of everything that is going on. There can often be multiple projects on the go at once with daily tasks that still need to be completed. I believe that I have the ability to remain organised and level headed even when I am up against the clock.
