'There is nothing more frustrating in a job search than the lack of response by hiring managers or recruiters. You follow all the rules of a compelling cover letter. You compose a custom resume that matches your accomplishments to the job specifications posted by the company or the recruiter. You have scoured your network to find insiders at the company and you have followed their advice to the letter.

'It''s been a while since we first discussed this topic here and I think it''s time it returned. I have toiled in Public Relations for around 95 years now and it still seems as if most of my friends — not to mention immediate family — have an innate trouble understanding exactly what I do.

It’s been a month since I embarked on redefining my life from the inside out – getting healthy and fit – with Grant Hill. One month since I’ve been getting up at 5 am every day (well, every weekday, I sometimes sleep in a little on the weekends) to get my butt kicked in what is aptly called #mybootcamp.

As I was on a treadmill the other day (working to get back to my “fighter’s weight&# ) I found myself noticing the little things all around me. This is what happens to me once the endorphins begin to kick in and I’m not breathing too heavily (I wasn’t in a boot camp session that day)…. a leg extension machine sticking. the frayed edges of a stair-stepper. some meathead staring at himself *way too long*. the syncopated rhythms of other runners on their treadmills. … and the photo at the st

Women are successful in public relations – UK data shows a 64:36 female:male gender split in an industry worth £7.5bn.
