Moving from journalism to comms

from The Media Mentor

On this episode I talk to Emily Slater about moving from journalism into PR and comms. Emily had to travel with her husband because of his job and it led to a switch in her career. I ask her about her transferable skills and what she had to learn when first working in comms. Many journalists say it's moving to 'the dark side' but as we learn, it's very much not that.If you would like some neutral support and advice about your next step, find out more about The Media Mentor here: https://www.themediamentor.info/servicesThere you will also find 6 pages of media jobs to browse and there's a WhatsApp channel: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vb1iknl8fewtgb5bPU0XIf you have any questions about media careers or a story that you would like to share then please get in touch.More details about The Media Mentor can be found here.For all the latest job listings head here.To get alerts on media jobs as they drop follow the MM WhatsApp channel here.
