I had done my BBA in my graduation and didn’t know much what to do after that. One of my cousins was working in the PR industry and then, and as it is like with every family, I received my share of career sermon from her. It appeared to be a sermon only till the time I understood what exactly she does. It generated interest in me and I started to look for colleges offering Public Relations degree.
I happened to join one of the renowned colleges in Delhi which offers a full time Mass communication course of 2 years. I was introduced to world of media in a different light and I must say my decision to get a post graduation degree was worth it. I came to know what exactly a PR firm does and how it has become indispensible for today’s corporate world. The best thing that happened to me during this course was one of the public relations internships form aaft that I landed onto. Arranged by our college itself, this was an experience which made me come close to the world of Public Relations and undoubtedly one of my stepping stones towards my career.
I learnt communication- both written and verbal is an integral part of Public Relations and that improving you communication skills is the best way to stay ahead in this career. Not only is this, staying updated with the world’s news another thing that you have to get habituated to. Handling clients from diverse backgrounds become easy if you do so.
Improving the image of a company or a personality in the eyes of the public can be challenging and exciting, so you are guaranteed of a dynamic job which will surprise you every day with its requirements. So if you are thinking to go for a course that specializes in PR, my vote goes for it!
