I work as a PR Specialist in a University with testimonials of crisis management, information gathering, image making, copy editing and event planning. I have been at the job for 16 years and 2 months. I have risen to the Position of Assistant Director (Communications). The role is no longer challenging and I want more. Sadly, however, I can't seem to find the perfect fit. I want a leap into multinationals to get another view of the profession. I am here to network.

I used to work in higher ed communications and then I moved into association work. I love it because it's an easy transition to go from universities to associations. Many associations have an international aspect, too. Check out ASAE to learn more about the sector and what it has to offer.

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)
