Where are the jobs?

When you go to college for four years, slaving away at all the writing assignments, econ courses (I hate econ), and copy editing assignments... :D... a high-powered, fancy job with many well-known and respected clients seems like the ultimate goal. You don't want to think four years was wasted, simply to move to a small town and never use your degree to its full potential! The reality is however, that PR jobs are needed everywhere; both rural and urban areas, small and large corporations, for profit and non-profit organizations - the possibilities are endless. Yes, smaller towns and smaller companies may provide less opportunities in getting hired as a public relations representative, as well as fewer choices in what kind of pr work one would be doing, however there is still a need for the profession. Public relations really is a very versatile major, for this very reason. The work entailed doesn't limit where one can or can't go to find a job - it's a profession that will always be needed if any sort of corporation or organization wishes to be known among its publics. Just one more reason pr really is the best major!
