Early Tuesday morning I received a call from a PR firm in Manhattan asking if I could come in for an interview. Needless to say, I am BEYOND excited. I've decided to pull an all-nighter to prepare for my interview and do some much needed cleaning.
I was recently laid off from my job as a PR Assistant/Office Manager at C&M Media, a boutique fashion PR firm in NYC. I worked there for over a year. During that time I learned A LOT about the fashion industry. I would never consider myself a die-hard fashionista, you can spot those girls teetering on their Christian Louboutins a mile away, but I've really enjoyed working in fashion and, although my primary focus is PR, I hope that I can continue to specialize in fashion.
My interview is at 11:30 tomorrow morning and I don't think I'm going to be getting any sleep tonight. I was asked to provide writing samples and my portfolio of media placements. Surprisingly enough, a year at C&M wasn't enough to provide me with either of these. I've decided to look through their client list and write up a few press releases based on the information I've found on their clients Web sites. I know I am the right person for this job and I'm not going to let the lack of a writing sample keep me from getting it!
My ADHD kicked in. I'm about halfway through and I've decided it's time to take a break.
My mom is coming tomorrow and I haven't even started to prepare. Time to do a little bit of cleaning!
