If this is the first post you’ve read of mine, you’ll quickly notice how often I remind everyone that nothing compares with first-hand experience when it comes to PR and journalism.
During those internships, don’t go in a suit, unless it’s armour because Kim mentioned multiple times that “You have to have tough skin.”
If you want to keep that internship, you better learn that Fact Checking isn’t just in the political realm.
To help understand b2b and consumer business: b2b you are connected all the time, it’s focused, one-on-one. Consumer to consumer has much more variety.
In your writing, it’s okay to repeat topics. There will always be new people coming in to read it for the first time and any veterans could likely use the reminder.
My personal favorite of the night: If you don’t give feedback, you wont be viewed as talented. Who ever criticizes your work, criticize their work as well.
