My Continue Journey in PR

My name is Kyle Wiemer, a 5th year senior at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater majoring in public relations with a minor in general business. My current goal is to graduate this spring and obtain a job before graduation. I’m currently working at Lavelle Industries, a rubber factory that specializes in toilet parts. I am six classes away from completing my major, taking four of those classes now and taking the other two classes in the spring semester. The courses I’m taking right now are public relation strategies, public relation tactics two, foundations of advertising and publication layout.  In my public relations tactics two course, I hope to develop better networking skills. I have currently created a LinkedIn account to start improving my networking. I also plan on taking advantage if possible, these eight events our teacher recommends we go to for making connection with individuals in the job market. I am also one class away from completing my minor and i have a wide variety of courses I can choose from however interested in taking a management course. In my continued journey in public relations, I have even started watching the news more, especially with the issues involving Syria. I don't have cable, so I usually tend to go to the new webpage and read as much as I can. I also created a twitter account, one reason being for class and the other reason being for the news updates. I really thought I would hate twitter but so far have found it very useful in finding news articles. This concludes my first blog about my journey through PR.
