What is the best major for me to pursue in college if I want to be an event planner?
I want to be an event producer, however there are very few schools who offer that major. Event planning is a major, however it most likely won't provide me with the best degree in order to be flexible in my job choice after college. Therefore, I was wondering what would be the next best thing for me to major in that would teach me multiple skills that I can utilize for an event planning career. People have told me business, public relations, and even marketing. How do I know which one to choose and which is right for me and my dream? #business #marketing #public-relations #event-planning

How do I pursue a career in social media?
Hello everyone, I am currently a junior in college majoring in Business Accounting and minoring in Public Relations. My interest has always been in social media, blogging, content management (I love writing), and a little bit of graphic design. I love being able to impact and influence other's lives through one of the most powerful tools we have today - social media. However, I'm not sure how to go about this career. From my understanding, a lot of social media positions require a background in marketing and advertising - which some times requires a lot of strategizing and pitching. As creative as I am, I also enjoy a sense of routine and stability; I don't want to always have to meet marketing/advertising goals, as I find that to be extremely stressful. Furthermore, I'm not sure what position(s) in the field would enable me to continue growing. It seems like Social Media Coordinator/Manager is just about as high as you can climb - and I want to pursue something that'll allow for me to make major advances in both a financial and skills standpoint. I was thinking maybe I could try to aim for a Communications Manager position? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! #public-relations #social-media #social-media-marketing #blogging #marketing #marketing-and-advertising #communications
