Am I where I should be?
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than 98,000 persons are currently working in public relations and corporate communications positions. Also according to the BLS and their Occupational Outlook Handbook (2004) writers and editors held about 320,000 jobs; writers and authors held about 142,000 jobs; Editors, about 127,000 jobs; and technical writers, about 50,000. Salaries range from $23,000 for a brand new practitioner with a baccalaureate degree to mid-range salaries between $54,000 and $91,000 and up to $150,000 or more for a Public Relations Vice President. Some industries and companies pay their employees more than others, especially those in the Northeast and Midwest U.S.
Do you know for certain that you are where you should be in terms of location, pay, and level of responsibility?
In truth, even when you know intuitively that you have alternatives, figuring out exactly what it is you want to do about your career can be a daunting task filled with some baffling questions:
Where do I begin?
Where would I be the happiest?
What is the path to the best paying job?
Is it worth the effort?
What steps must I take?
How long will it take?
For what else am I suited?
