I'm getting frustrated by vet coworkers' need to question and correct me at every little chance. They constantly give unnecessary reminders and corner me into practicing things that I already did fine. I am ok with learning more and improving my skills, but I need to know what they are trying to correct first. I brought this up to my manager, but he brushed it off, saying it's just them looking out for me. What do I do?

You could ask them as to why they are doing that or let them say something then ask what you may had done that made them say whatever it is they said. If they are just constantly jumping on you on literally everything that you do then , personally , I don’t think they are looking out for you . I think they could be finding out how much they could push or irritate you till you “ kindly “ tell them to “ fly off “

Just ignore it and brush it off. Don't let them bother you or get under your skin.

How about you ask them directly? Seems like your manager doesn't really care about the issue at all.

Just let them. Continue doing a good job. If you can tell them directly that you are just doing fine, then that would be great.

15 YOE, recently started my first tech PR job at a large, stable company & have been asked to get ~20 SMEs in front of media. Subject matter is not sexy. I lead PR for all of U.S. & have no other PR colleagues. My agency’s budget is 100k/year & they’re spread too thin to hit their KPIs. I feel set up to fail & feel we should be focusing on a handful of SMEs and only our sexiest topics. Any advice on mitigating unrealistic expectations for coverage? Anyone handled similar problems in the past?
