High-tech companies seem to be beating the recession better than most, so if you’re interested in a public relations career, why not choose a firm that specializes in this sector? DPR Group, which has offices in Germantown, MD and Cary, NC, is a full-service agency that is approaching its 13th year in business. In North Carolina, the Triangle Business Journal recently ranked DPR Group as a Top 10 PR Firm for the fifth consecutive year. Although DPR Group doesn’t include a client list on their Web site, it does mention that their high-tech clients include “software firms, system integrators, electronics manufacturers, telecommunications companies, consulting firms, as well as a manufacturer of unmanned aerial vehicles and other high-tech devices.”

Be a Driver of Innovation

Based on testimonials, it appears that DPR Group’s has clients throughout the U.S., ranging from small to global. The firm’s services seem pretty typical, although I’m surprised that they’re not more involved in social media. DPR Group does, however, have a small group of partner organizations that might provide those services. DPR Group is currently seeking an Account Coordinator (Monster posting) in its Germantown, MD office. They need someone who can support senior-level staff and work on multiple clients at one time. Interested? Submit your cover letter, résumé and two writing samples to MDCareers@DPRGroup.com. You might also consider contacting president Dan Demaree directly at ddemaree@dprgroup.com.
