What?
This webinar is designed to help you make real progress in your hunt for an opportunity to prove yourself in the comms industry.
We talk to agencies all the time on The Public Relations Podcast and Getting a Job in PR.
This webinar includes the ideas they share with us on what they really want, how to get a job with agencies around the world and how to succeed when you get there.
What it’s not?
You don’t need “yet more information”.
This webinar is about the practical things you can do NOW to get noticed.
The ideas we share are not random “generic ideas” from the internet.
Every idea has been discussed with an actual agency. Every idea we share has got someone an actual job.
This is NOT about quick hacks or tricks. We are only interested in helping serious raw talent. People who chase hacks sometimes get hired faster but also get fired faster.
This isn’t theory or some glossy fluff. We’ve discussed every idea with an actual agency. Every idea has got someone a job.
Every Month for free
Why THIS webinar?
Richard Midson has over 25 years of comms experience as a PR professional, co-agency owner, broadcaster, journalist, and news editor. He now teaches comms at universities, but for the last 5 years he’s also run a podcast, The Public Relations Podcast, on and off.
This year he realised that there was a problem.
Agencies couldn’t find the right people, despite having lots of candidates, and the best candidates often didn’t know what the industry needed to get noticed.
To fix the problem, Richard created a new show called “Getting a Job in PR”, where he asks agencies what they really want, how the best candidates get noticed, and what they deliver in the office that makes them stand out.
In this webinar, he shares what agencies say in public interviews and privately (he doesn’t share names, only techniques) after the microphones are turned off.
If you want to know what really gets people hired and how you can be that person, this is the webinar for you.

The industry needs the “right” people now!
- PR/Comms is changing. The industry needs the right people for this new era. That means a mix of traditional and new skills. All of which you can learn if you are serious.
- We’re on a mission to help find the industry identify and develop the next generation of comms talent.
- We’re looking for “raw talent”. You may have never been involved in comms before. You may have finished education with or without qualitifications. We’re looking for people with an edge (something different), a willingness to learn and challenge their own ideas.
- Our ultimate goal is to build a global group of people who will go into agencies around the world and support the industry in whatever it needs to move into a new era.
What we’ll cover:
- What most people miss from their CVs.
- What you need to know about AI and comms today.
- How you can reach out to agencies directly.
- What you need to know about them and their clients’ business.
- How to utilise your unique talents to get a job. Everyone has unique talents.
Why is this webinar different?
- This is not some “info dump” webinar. This is a practical one-hour (roughly 40 mins, with Q&A) workshop designed to get people doing the things needed to get that job.
- It’s the things agencies tell us they really want.
- It’s the things you won’t find in generic internet articles or on AI (which relies on what people say publically).
- The ideas are proven. Each idea has got someone a job.
We’re on a mission to find the next generation of “raw” global PR/comms talent who can take this industry into the future. Could you be that person?
FAQ
Why is it “free”? There are two reasons…
1: We want to know what works for you. Every participant will be asked to report back on which techniques worked for them, which they adjusted to make them work, and which didn’t. The industry is always changing. We hear from agencies; now we want to know what applicants are experiencing too.
2: Because we want to see who might be suitable for our training course too. There is no obligation to join that. We are simply trying to spot people with that “extra something” who we may be able to nurture further.
If you are looking for “quick hacks”, you are in the wrong place
If you are looking for quick tricks/hacks to get a job, you’re in the wrong place.
We want to develop the next generation of “talent”. People with raw ideas and ability, not those who just want a job because it sounds fun.
People who want quick hacks sometimes get jobs faster, but they also get fired faster because they don’t have what it takes to succeed.
If you are serious, we want to help.
