In previous jobs, my focus has been much more media-centric, but at this company, it's more about strategic communication to a variety of different audiences (which can sometimes include media!). </p> <p>@mrbee: It can be a little surprising to learn how media cover what they cover. But, I promise that PR is MUCH more than just media relations. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-or-did-you-do-for-a-living-before-baby/page/2#post-366112 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 11:30:14 +0000 pinkcupcake 366112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Minnie_Girl: You have my dream jobs!
