JOBS & CAREERS SPRING 2018 - 299

Want to talk to people -
in person, online and in
print - for a living? Then a
career in communications
could be the perfect fit

C

ommunications is all about information and
how you make sure it's understood by others.
It covers many industries, from public
relations, journalism and marketing to customer
services, government, education and diplomacy.
Two days are rarely the same when it comes to
communications. And although big companies often
have departments dedicated to its various aspects, in
which case you may be expected to specialise, in some
firms you'll be asked to turn your hand to many tasks,
from tweeting to handling complaints.
Good communicators will always be highly valued.
After all, maintaining a strong relationship with the
public is vital, however big or small the company.
