PRSA New Professionals Section hosted its first Tweetchat last week. Two experts shared advice on the art of self-promotion.
On Tuesday, October 25, PRSA New Professionals Section held it first tweetchat with Meryl Weinsaft Cooper and Jessica Kleiman, the authors of our July Summer Book Club selection, “Be Your Own Best Publicist: How to Use PR Techniques to Get Noticed, Get Hired and Get Rewarded at Work”. #NPchat participants gathered to hear Cooper and Kleiman shared great advice for networking and getting ahead in your PR career.
Boy were the tweets moving fast and furiously across our timeline. From the first question to the last, the chat provided valuable advice for recent graduates looking to kick start their career and new pros striving to get to the next level. We kicked the discussion off with best way to network as a new graduate. Here are a few tweets of advice from our authors:
