✨ What makes compelling social media content? 🎨 How do you transform an abstract concept into creative content that engages your community? 🏆 Who do you think is doing extraordinary work on social media, and why? 📈 What campaign are you most proud of? These are some of the key questions I ask when recruiting Social Media Managers. Here’s why: - The first question uncovers your thoughts on effective content. - The second reveals your approach to turning ideas into impactful content. - The third gauges your passion for the industry and awareness of key players. - The fourth ties everything together with a concrete example from your experience. These questions help me determine if you're the right fit for the role and if the role aligns with your skills, experience, and career goals. After all, a good fit is about more than just qualifications—it's about shared vision and values. If you're a Social Media Manager with experience in reputable fashion, beauty, jewelry, accessory, home, or furniture brands in London and are looking for a new opportunity, let’s chat! 📩 DM me your CV and portfolio, and we’ll schedule a call. #SocialMediaManager #Hiring #Recruitment #DigitalMarketing #CreativeTalent #JobOpportunity #LondonJobs

Completely agree with this perspective! My journey in PR so far has spanned across multiple industries, and I've found that the core principles of PR are truly universal. Whether it's crafting compelling narratives or building strong media relationships, the skills we develop are adaptable and transferable across any field. When selecting a PR professional to join your team, it's crucial to look beyond just industry experience. Prioritizing attributes, such as those outlined by the author of the post, can make all the difference. These are the qualities that drive success and enable PR professionals to thrive in any environment!

I 100% resonate with this! A skilled communicator with deep experience can thrive in any industry. The core principles of PR remain the same—understanding your audience, crafting compelling narratives, and building strong relationships. While each industry has its nuances, a seasoned PR professional can adapt and succeed across the board. PR is PR, no matter the field.

Completely agree with this! Perfectly put. I believe a varied PR background and time spent across different industries only adds to one’s strength and often fresh perspectives they bring to a role. 💥👌🏻✨ #PR #PublicRelations #Comms #Communications #skills #jobs #transferableskills #industry

I love this post! Thanks Sarah Kissko Hersh (and an old friend for commenting on it). PR people are also good at being inspired by great content around them - and remixing it: "PR is PR is PR. With very few exceptions, if you can successfully do PR/comms in one industry you can successfully do PR/comms in any industry." Over the years I've worked for clients in: Architecture and design B2B B2C Nonprofits The study of sport in society Libraries Sound systems for home, office and beyond Smart city networked sensors on lampposts Snowskate shaped like a skateboard Public companies Private companies Start-up companies Entertainment marketing Sailing center NASCAR driver Professor at UCal-Berkeley Tech Adtech Fintech Martech Medtech Military and aerospace tech Social media tech Travel and hospitality tech Luxury Cybersecurity Dogs for security HVAC and heat pumps AI-powered neural sensing platform And more (even Deborah Henson-Conant who reinvented ways to play and wear the jazz harp). The principles are the same, and they are transferable (and teachable). New media relationships can be made. Old media relationships should age like fine wine. Businesses can be grown. So if you're hiring a PR person or PR agency partner, prioritize things like: Chemistry fit Attitude Writing skills AI skills Work ethic Life ethic Work/Life balance Curiousity Creativity Collaboration Communication Genuine interest in following news Genuine interest in making news Tenacity Agility Strategic acumen Fun Past success.

THIS, 💯. Transferable skills for days (and months and years). It’s as true in #communications as it is in PR. A wise co-worker used to say, “You can more easily teach an industry, it’s harder to teach skills.” If you limit your team or company to people with industry experience, you miss out on: ✅ Talented employees who bring history on what’s worked and what hasn’t in other areas ✅ Fresh ideas from other businesses and industries ✅ New perspectives on how to look at and solve for issues ✅ People who ask questions that generate new lines of thinking ✅ Team members who might be a better culture fit despite not having as much industry experience I’ve worked for high-tech, healthcare, entertainment, media, hospitality, beverage, business software, finance, news, beauty and med-tech companies, both B2C and B2B, as big as Fortune 10 and as small as startup. Each stop was a chance to bring my spectrum of experience to bear on their issues and add a color or two to my palette. Every company that hired me got to take advantage of it. It wasn’t a one-way street of them investing in me, I invested my expertise in them too. And a variety of colors is more inspiring and engaging than painting everything with the same shade over and over. Once people get used a single color that never changes, it becomes an ignored background. Can you remember what color your house is? #communications #commsjobs #transferableskills #skills
