You should ALWAYS send 2 thank you letters

    after an interview
    1. Immediately after the interview through e-mail.
    2. Hand written one to get there a week or two
       later.
Whether we like it or not, we are being judge

    on first appearances, especially when
    interviewing.


    not the job
    you have.

    Take at least one, try for more, they will give

    you better experience than a classroom can.
There is NO typical day or week in the PR

    world.
Have well written resume and cover letter.


    duties.
Most gifts are unethical in the PR world and
