If anyone out there has the same kind of feelings, let’s talk. We’re looking for someone with 2-3 years of PR loving and a degree in PR, communications or related field; someone who has experience in campaign planning, project management, and social media/digital marketing; someone who is comfortable working with clients, and can do all that with moxie.
