Dream JobEssay Preview: Dream JobReport this essayAs children, most of us have an idea of what we want to be when we grow up. Almost every child wants to be a Doctor, or a Nurse, or a Teacher, etc. As a child myself, I dont recall having a dream job in mind. I am a 37-year old single mother of two, and I still dont know what I want to be when I grow up. This assignment, however, gave me something to think about. What is a dream job anyway? To figure out what my particular dream job is, I accessed myself for the things that I like to do what makes me feel energized. What am I good at? What would I like to do?
A dream job is different things for different people. For me, it is a role that has challenge, room for growth, and value. A job that maximizes my potential, allows me to use my skills and talents, and leaves me feeling fulfilled is part of a dream job too. I want a job that I enjoy doing and one that makes me feel like the work I do makes a difference. I am an extremely motivated individual and I want the work that I do to be both positive and exciting. I have been told by many that I would do well in Sales, but that is not the route I would choose for myself. However, I do like people and have always been interested in Marketing, which is my area of concentration at Wilmington University.
After identifying what it is that I want to, the job that I could adapt to my main personal skill set would be a Public Relations Specialist. This position plays an important role in organizations and would require commitment to pushing boundaries, both creatively and physically, which would be my motivation. I could incorporate everything that I love to do in this position. Ive been called the “Social Director” by colleagues and a “Social Butterfly” by friends. I love to be active and moving around and I love working with and helping people. I would be surrounded by stimuli that fuels me, builds me and make me the happiest I could possibly be.
A Public Relations Specialist serves as an advocate for organizations, and builds and maintains positive relationships with the public. Public Relations Specialists handles organizational functions such as media, community, consumer, industry, and governmental relations, such as, political campaigns, interest-group representation, conflict mediation, and employee and investor relations. Public Relations Specialists sometimes draft press releases and may contact people in the media who might print or broadcast their material. Many radio or television special reports, newspaper stories, and magazine articles start at the desks of Public Relations Specialists. Public Relations Specialists also arrange and conduct programs to keep up contact between organization representatives and the public. For example, they set up speaking engagements and often prepare speeches for company officials. These media specialists represent employers at community projects; make film,
s, and distribute their own promotional materials to state and local law enforcement and other state and local government officials. Public Relations Specialists also arrange and conduct communications with government offices, colleges, and universities. For example, they can organize news conferences and presentations of news stories to local and state institutions, such as the Texas Education and Job Development Corporation (TECJ), and conduct legal development meetings with state legislators. Public Relations Specialists often do the following: • Produce and publish press releases
• Develop national policy and/or legislative objectives
• Coordinate news activities with local groups and citizens
• Provide services
• Reporters at the Texas Press Department (TPDD) or other major public relations agencies are a core part of this group. These groups act as an integrated support system for all of these groups, not just for the private sector. Also, many public relations professionals may be the head of a press body such as the Texas Press and Press Office and an editor for a major publication such as the TexPost, which can be reached by text message. Some news media specialists represent a broad range of topics, including media coverage and opinion, as well as government affairs, political analysis, and public policy. Public Relations Specialists also may provide written briefs, or have field assignments such as press briefing or field interviews. Many news media specialists have served in positions of public knowledge, particularly in positions of political influence or high-ranking positions. Some general news coverage experts also receive training, sometimes in law enforcement, from special needs groups or specialized groups for which they were trained. Public Relations Specialists may also provide specialized training at a public hearing with the intent of improving the public’s understanding of their particular role. For example, when public policy professionals make comments on various news subjects, public relations professionals may present their perspectives to the public. When news professionals work with a group of law enforcement lawyers to establish a case, such comments may reflect a sense of how the case has been handled and help the attorney general to understand the matter better. In addition, Public Relations Specialists may also provide field assignments to news organizations that can help with local community development, media development, and public policy issues, such as local education, health, and the environment or information security. Such news media experts will also engage with local political officials when they come to press briefings or media events. This group also includes lawyers for the state in which they practice and public relations professionals who may be outside of the public’s reach. Public Relations Specialists typically provide public relations professional services such as public relations training and press briefings. This group also includes people who care about the public and work in communities that are particularly affected by these issues such as communities of color, high schools, community colleges, and other public institutions. These professionals may assist media and public relations professionals in finding and developing strategic relationships, developing strategies that can help ensure that the media and public relations professionals have positive influence and impact at the local, state, and national levels. The groups often work together in small groups so that public relations specialists can work together in larger groups. In addition to being a group with a general public goal of maintaining public-quality public affairs in a diverse and innovative way, public relations specialists work collaboratively in group settings such as law enforcement groups, courts, community groups, and legislative and public relations offices. The news media specialists may also support the public’s decisionmaking process within a group or work out or engage in other work, such as litigation, to improve public understanding of their position within the group. The news media specialists work with these groups to provide information on how public policy or public policy issues are being presented and how it relates to issues that are at the root of local and state issues.
