Agencies, Recruiters, Employers

The sister show to The Public Relations Podcast focuses on what the industry needs from applicants today.

On the main podcast, you’ve told us that many candidates lack the right attitude, skills and mindset, and that even promising people often arrive with no practical experience. The result is it costs you time and money spent training them to a basic level and filling in the gaps.

Our goal is simple: help the whole industry find better people and help those people who are prepare to do the work, get noticed when they deserve to be.

But we need your experience to define what “better” actually means.

Why should you take part?

• You get to say the things you wish applicants understood
• You help shape the next generation of comms talent
• You raise your profile with early career listeners
• You contribute to a research-led project on employability in comms
• Your insights feed into the book, articles and wider industry discussion (with your permission)

Your appearance is straightforward: a short conversation about what makes someone stand out, what people get wrong, and what great early career work looks like in your world.

We’ll be sharing what we find in articles, the podcast, and ultimately a book, which we hope will help the whole industry in the new era of communications.

If you’d like to take part, share a couple of details below and we’ll be in touch.
