So today before my 10:55am class I had the opportunity to have a informational phone interview with one of the co-founders of PBJS, a creative agency based in Seattle. My Strat Comm professor connected me with this person and I wasn’t able to talk to him before we left for winter break because I was busy with exams and what not. That aside, I finally got in touch with him and had a really good conversation with him today. I was so nervous about this phone call but I’m glad it went well. I got lots of insight on career choices and the next steps I need to take to achieve what I want. I also got a chance to talk to him about my passions and interests as well as hear about his experiences. Even though he doesn’t work at PBJS anymore, he offered me help in contacting the CEO of PBJS to speak with him ONE ON ONE. He even told me that he would be interested in what I have to say and offer because the CEO of PBJS has expressed his admiration with the fantastic PR work they do in Japan! That’s what I want to do and that is where I ultimately want to end up! Whether PBJS has an internship program is not clear, but just to have the opportunity to have a one on one conversation with the CEO is HUGE! I can’t believe I just took this huge step! I’m crossing my fingers that this follows thru and hoping for something REALLY good to come out of this!
