This week I overcame one of the scariest things a PR senior will EVER have to face...my first job interview! I heard about the job opportunity from my professor and figured emailing my resume couldn't hurt. A few minutes after I clicked send I received an email with a request for an interview! A million thoughts came flooding into my head. What should I say? Which writing samples should I bring? What should I wear? These questions were only the beginning of the anxiety I felt. After speaking with my parents and getting advice from my professor, my anxiety was lessened and I felt ready for the interview. I felt confident in the fact that I would not completely bomb the interview and that even if I didn't get the job I could learn from this experience. Thankfully the interview went great! Later that day I was offered the job and I start this week part-time until graduation. Now with my confidence and the support of my parents, professor and friends, I can't wait to start and get my feet wet in the working world of public relations!
