Interning is probably the most important thing you can do when your in college. My internship has been quite rewarding in a sense that I got to experience the entertainment side of public relations. Working with clients like Rachael Ray and Tyra Banks did not really interest me.
With this internship I now realize that this type of public relations is really not for me. I was not really passionate about it but I am very happy that I was able to see that and realize that it was just not for me. I loved the work experience though it was great and I know it's something that I will take with me throughout my career. All my internship were quite rewarding in a sense that when I find a job I wont go into it unprepared. Experience is what lands you the job you are aiming for not G.P.A's...Your thoughts?
I agree that internships are extremely important. PR is extremely diverse field, so the only way to truly see what part of PR really interests you, is through different internships. Through internships you might find that is a passion of yours, but its not what you want your career to be.
