4. My understanding

Is anyone hiring in news? I don't think so. You might see an odd listing here and there in news but frankly they have their pick. There are far more journalism graduates and interns than there are jobs.

Similarly, are there jobs in public relations? I don't hear that term very much these days. I hear about corporate communications. Can you rebrand yourself as doing corporate communications.

Have you thought about working in the nonprofit sector? Good writing skills are required for grantwriting, donor relations, board relations. They also need people who are savvy in social media.
