@RedDeerGuy1, communications is an essential component of any job. While industries such as traditional journalism are in decline, journalistic skills are still in demand. If you look at many of the jobs advertised in LinkedIn or other sites, you’ll find research and writing skills feature as highly desirable. A communications degree can take you in a range of directions within the communication field. All of the content on the net has to be written in clear accessible language. So companies increasingly need people who can produce that content. They also need people to manage social media and their public image. Managing publics, audiences, formal company documents and so on.
People with comms degrees might work in PR, journalism and creative industries such as screen production, creative writing roles, digital communications, photography, government communication roles, media adviser positions. The list is really endless. Real estate agents increasingly need to produce video and other digital content as does anyone working in a sales department. Go and look at job ads for communications type roles and see what appeals to you, if anything.
