Why PR students should be blogging. Now.

Stephen Davies has a great post pointing out the importance of blogging for PR students. Why? Because it can jumpstart your career. I couldn’t agree more. Blogging gets your name out there, gets your name indexed in Google, creates a reputation that you know your stuff, and makes you money—hopefully by getting a job.

Students should think of the job hunt as running their own PR campaign. A blog is a great way to start.

  • Philip-

    I couldn't agree more with the reasons why PR students should be blogging, and it's surprising to see that many of my peers have no idea where to start when it comes to blogs. For this reason, Tehama Group Communications, the student-managed PR firm on the Chico State campus, has started its own blog. Every intern is required to post twice during the semester, and encouraged to blog whenever possible. It is great to see the trends shift toward social media, and will be especially helpful when it comes to job hunting.
