Explore every episode of the podcast Getting a Job in PR: Getting hired and learning the ropes in modern stategic comms

Getting a Job in PR is a podcast about what actually gets people hired in modern public relations and strategic communications.

Agencies and recruiters say they cannot find candidates who are ready to do the job.
Graduates and early career communicators say they are doing everything they were told to do and still cannot get in.

This podcast sits in that gap.

Instead of advice lists or generic career tips, Getting a Job in PR runs a live experiment. Each episode draws on conversations with agency leaders and recruiters, then tests those ideas in the real world with anonymised case studies of people trying to break into the industry.

You will hear what employers really look for, where candidates fall down, how AI is changing expectations, and which skills actually matter once you are inside an agency.

Some ideas will work. Some will fail. All of it is part of the process.

It is not about shortcuts. It is about understanding what survives contact with reality.

If you are trying to get into PR, hire junior talent, or teach the next generation of communicators, this podcast is for you.

New episodes will be released as the experiment unfolds.
