While checking various company websites in the Charleston area, I was thrilled to discover that a local publishing company here recently posted three PR/marketing opportunities. What is even better is that is that they are the same company I interned with a little over two years ago. Considering that I interned with the company and did the very jobs they are advertising now, that I have both a B.A. in Public Relations and a M.A. in English and that I have completed two other relevant internships, one would think I have a decent-great shot a getting at least one of the jobs. The down side is that most or all of the people who might remember me have left the company. Also, I applied for a job there when I was an intern (doing the very job they needed to fill, at the very desk they needed to fill) but they never even interviewed me. Of course, I was just beginning my Master's studies then and hadn't had any other relevant experience, so maybe things will be different this time. I hope so. My husband and I would really like to stay in Charleston, but haven't been able to find many promising openings. As dangerous as it is to hope like this, I will be checking my email like crazy and my heart will skip a beat every time the phone rings.
Tomorrow I'm going to call the Ad agency in Ft. Lauderdale and see what they're about.
