Everything is so pretty and there are people EVERYWHERE. I cannot wait to spend the entire Summer here and explore everything else this city has to offer. After our excursion into the pretty city, we had to go back to class - which wasn't bad because we met RON BONJEAN!
He's a really intelligent man, and he gave some of the best advice of any speaker we've had so far. I couldn't even put a price on the amount of incredible things he spoke about.
He's definitely an inspiration to all journalists, young and old. He owns his own PR firm, now and as the owner of a company, he offered a wealth of knowledge on the subject of what he looks for in his applicants. There are a lot of different things that employers look for, so it was nice to actually speak to someone in our field about what HE looks for.
He also gave a lot of great advice about what to do after college. He made sure we understood how important it is to NETWORK. "This town is built on relationships," he explained. And a relationship with Ron Bonjean is one I definitely want to develop!
He also gave us great insight as to how to grab the attention of employers since they are receiving thousands of applications monthly. The experiences and information I am receiving here are truly priceless. I don't believe that I could have ever wished for a better semester! THANK YOU AMERICAN UNIVERSITY <3
