Personal Statement

I graduated high school from Wakefield High in Raleigh, NC; and I always knew I wanted to go to NC State University. I graduated early from high school, in December of 2009. I am now a Junior at NCSU, and I am taking Com267. In this class I have created an Audio assignment, Audio Visual Assignment, and I am now creating an online portfolio. This class meshes well with my major in Public Relations and I am also working on a double minor in English and Psychology.

The assignments I have completed in this class will help me in many ways for the future. First and foremost they will provide me with something to show during interviews. It will show my ability to complete online tasks. This blog will show my ability to link multiple pages to one another and keep up with an ongoing topic (NC State football.)

If I had my dream job, I would be someone who went into a struggling company and worked for an extended period of time. Then, I would rewrite their hiring process, evaluate the current employees, and analyze their entire work system. After coming up with more productive ways of running their business, I woudl empliment it by going through the hiring and training processes with the company. Advertising for the new changes in the company would also be something I am interested in. To do this, I will need the tools I have learned in this class. I may need to update and create blogs/webpages, I may need to create a script for a radio/television commercial, and I may need to put a spin on the positive attributes the company posesses. All of these tasks I have atleast learned about in com267 and they will hopefully apply directly to my professional goals.
