Description

Extending from the very successful r/publicrelations group on Reddit, Pitch Perfect talks to top PR professionals from a variety of different roles, focus areas, geographies and approaches to gain insight into how to enter the field, do the work, manage the career, deal with the highs and lows, and everything else involved in being a communications professional. Topics include public affairs, investor relations, tech PR, internal communications and, hopefully, not too much celebrity PR.
