I was given the assignment to shadow a PR professional or someone in the Communications field. Considering I am leaning more toward a career in marketing or advertising, I chose to go to the Marketing and Communications Department at Georgia Southern University. I followed Angela Harn and Suzanne Tatum. Angela Harn is the manager of Marketing and Communications, while Suzanne Tatum is the Senior Marketing Specialist. They work very close with one another, and through that they have developed a great bond.
The two days I spent with them were very busy. We attended various meetings, ranging from meetings about the Tim McGraw concert to ads for the Georgia Southern magazine. They asked my opinions and made me feel like a was a real part of the team, and they were open to suggestions and questions.
It was an overall great experience!
