Public Relations (Conclusion)

Finally it comes to the end of writing this blog. After a few post of writing about my perspective and reality of PR, now I have a better understanding of what PR looks like in the real working life. Through this assignment, now I know PR is not as easy as what I think. It requires experiences but not only the qualification in certificate and variety of skills to work as a PR practitioner. Besides that, I have finally know what is Corporate Comm. and PR. They are actually almost the same but only a few differences. Through this assignment, it makes me to rethink again whether I am suitable for PR or not. After comparing my perspective and the reality of PR, I still think that PR is a fun and exciting job. 

Moreover, today I also found a video that talk about the reality of PR. The girl inside the video work as a PR practitioner. What she says from the video is exactly same as what Mr. Alex, Mr.Shaun and Ms.Renee said. She says that you do not need to major in communications as long as you have liberal arts background or experiences, then you can become a PR practitioner. Furthermore, she also says that PR people should have to skill of communication to socialize with the public. She says that if you are a forgetful or not a organize person, you are not suitable to become a PR person. Besides, she also says that PR people do not have a normal working hour which what Shaun said it previously. Lastly, she also says that PR is a fun, exciting and challenging job which is same as what I think. 

This is the video that I watch today.

Before I end my last post, I would like to end it with a quote which says by Alvin Adam, one of the famous actor and news presenter from Indonesia. He says that "My view is different. Public Relations are a key component of any operation in this day of instant communications and rightly inquisitive citizen".  (Click in for more Public Relation quotes) Last but not least, thank you for those who pay attention and time for viewing my blog.
