first generation student, never been to a university graduation, what are some things you wish you knew/did before/during commencement weekend?
tips especially for parking and photo opportunities are appreciated! thank you!
what are some good examples of a communications specialist portfolio?
i just graduated as an English major with minors in psychology and communication with a certificate in business and technical writing and I want to pursue communications/social media marketing as I have completed three internships in those fields. I’m not sure exactly how a communications portfolio is formatted since I was originally aiming to be a copywriter so my portfolio is focused more on that, but I realized my goals are more suited to communications.
So, drop your portfolio and/or LinkedIn, I’d really like to see communications portfolios from professionals. Thank you!
I am about to graduate with a BA in English and minors in psychology and communications. I have done three internships as a communications specialist and I want to continue pursuing communications or social media management after graduation. During this limbo period between graduation and my first job, how can I learn about industry trends and keep my writing skills sharp? Any resources other professionals in this industry use?
ALL tips and resources are welcome. I am struggling to stay hopeful and keep applying for jobs after 120 applications. Thank you.
just walked the stage yesterday, and I have no job lined up (120 applications, rejected after last round of interviews, it’s tough out here) and im living with my parents. Besides that, I have so many goals and things I need to learn in order to feel like an adult, so how do I start tackling the rest of my life?
It’s just so strange being a student since I was three years old, and suddenly not having that be a part of my identity anymore at 21. I’m not sure what to do with myself without the constant demands and structure of school. I know I probably (God willing) have a long life ahead of me but I don’t know how to start it.
What is something you wish you would’ve started planning or doing immediately after graduating college? How do you organize your goals and tackle them slowly over the course of your life without burning out or getting bored?
Sorry im asking such big questions. All advice is appreciated.
