Is creating a blog still a good way to demonstrate my writing skills? Will this step help me land a writing job in the media industry? This was the advice we were given in school but I’m not confident that this is still an effective strategy?

If you've got the time and energy to manage a blog, then I'd say go for it. If nothing else, it can serve as a creative outlet for you and a means to hone your skills on a regular basis.

I don't think it's all that relevant in today's world. A blog is a great place to showcase your talent and portfolio, but I'm not sure it's enough to actually secure roles, especially given how easy it is to churn out blog content with AI.
