The most important thing I gained from this experience was to see all the work they do that isn't glamorous, because anyone looking in at a PR specialist's job will only see the fun stuff, like the events they go to, the people they meet, the lunches they have with editors, etc. However, being there all day and doing all the sideline work of just doing chores showed me what it really is to work as a PR specialist, and now I have a real true picture of what I would be doing, should I choose to go into that field.
I got all of my EQ answers from the experiences I had with Alyssa; before working with her, I had no idea what the job really entailed. She is also the reason I chose being a persuasive writer/speaker/presenter as my best answer, because I got to see her in action in her job and I got to see exactly how she does things in order to be successful.
