Sarah said, of her placement experience at the agency:“I have gained valuable insight into the public relations industry and believe that I am better equipped to graduate next year now that I have had the benefit of first-hand industry experience. The placement has also served to confirm my decision to enter into PR after graduation.”

Undoubtedly the experience enables students to develop invaluable practical skills and gain experience which not only enhances their CV’s but which also boosts their confidence.”
