Thank you and I'm glad you enjoyed the post. PR is a rewarding career when you love to build relationships through communication. PR people not only get the word out...but they are also critical thinkers, communications strategists, research and measurement focused, great listeners and conversationalists, content creators (great writers) and have excellent communications skills to connect with stakeholders to build awareness and customer loyalty for brands. PR is a very exciting career and definitely one that requires a passion and love for communication :) Hi Ivaelle! Thank you and I’m glad you enjoyed the post.

I'm good at spreading the word about different events and clubs but is that enough to handle being a PR person?

PR is a great field if you enjoy writing and speaking. I also think that PR people tend to be outgoing, detail oriented and are persistent (it takes time to build a relationship). It's also very important to be a good listener. Those a few of the personality traits. I recently participated in an interview, "Is PR Right for Me?" which may help you in your decision. My interview is a part of a 5-part series by Angela Hernandez, PRSSA president at CMU. Here's a link to the interview: http://tinyurl.com/laas2m. Good luck with your decision and let me know if you have any other questions :) Hi Annet! PR is a great field if you enjoy writing and speaking.

I wonder if you could you tell me what personality traits are useful to have in this career? I think this would help me to decide if it's for me. Many thanks!
