Use it, don't lose it

Graduation is only two days away and many college students (including myself) are still jobless. Regardless of having a job, it is important to keep networking and actively practicing public relations in your everyday life.

Growing up, I was always told "if you don't use it you lose it." I feel the same reigns true with public relations. It's only been a week or two since all my writing in classes ended, I transitioned new chairs into my current leadership positions and one of my internships ended. I noticed that my writing has cut down significantly and missing the constant writing I was forced to do during school.

Solution: Blogging.

Blogging provides opportunities to reflect on current trends and issues, as well as provides a space to market myself for a future career using social media. I think the most important thing, is it provides and opportunity to practice writing skills used every day in the public relations industry.
