In what marks a dramatic shift away from a mainstream-media approach to public relations, PR hiring managers in the US now say it is nearly as important for prospective hires to have social media savvy as it is for them to have traditional media-relations skills, according to a survey by iPressroom.
Among those responsible for hiring PR and marketing employees, 82% of respondents say mainstream media relations expertise is either important or very important, while more than 80% say knowledge of social networks is either important or very important.
The research also suggests a potential gap in online communications strategy at most organizations, since the channels with the greatest reach and adoption levels - email and search engine optimization - do not appear to be the most important channels in practice.
