3. Be Social media Savvy
\nUpcoming PR pros must have at least basic knowledge of social media. It is important to demonstrate knowledge of how to use social media platforms to communicate effectively<\/p>\n

4. Create a LinkedIn Profile
\nFill it out properly and keep it to date. Sometimes, upload content on LinkedIn. Employers these days get an overview of applicants\\’ educational and professional profiles on LinkedIn.<\/p>\n

5. Seek Internship Opportunities
