Rutgers grad student Anna Tamke penned an op-ed in PR Week sharing her thoughts on why college has not prepared her for a career in public relations – a plea for higher education to teach real world skills in the classroom. "It’s a rude awakening when you graduate with a PR degree and realize you’re unemployed in a post-pandemic world with an unreal expectation for what working in your field looks like,” Tamke wrote. “If the education system properly taught students — like myself — what PR is and how to do it, entering the workforce wouldn’t be so hard." Austin and Thomas are joined by Calgary-based comms pro Matthew John to weigh on the opinion piece, share their personal experience breaking into corporate communications, what schools of higher learning can do to properly equip students to succeed, and why it’s important for students and professionals to look after their own professional development.Music Credit: Smoke (with Lostboycrow) – Feather FOLLOW MATTHEW JOHN ON SOCIAL MEDIA 📥 LinkedIn📚 Read Matt’s latest Trust TalkFOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA 🎬 Facebook🐦 Twitter📸 Instagram📥 LinkedIn🧵 Threads🎥 YouTubeSUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST🎙 Apple Podcasts🎙 Spotify💻 Website
