Public Relations Jobs

For our Tuesday industry spotlight, we bring you our first category re-run: jobs with public relations firms. You'll note some similarities with our first PR jobs special from January, and even some of the same jobs; perhaps some due diligence on your part is in order before applying for older positions. One significant difference: you'll see that we've included some out of town listings (where noted), as well – don't worry, we're not trying to get rid of you!*
