I’ve mentioned before how I often use Twitter to find the companies that I feature here, but lately I’ve been using Twitter more and more to connect with students and new grads who are going through the job search. Lately I’ve been noticing (and interacting with) a lot of PR students who are nervous about the job market. (By the way, you can follow me @willyf.) That’s why when I came across an entry level PR job with Roop & Co. – on Twitter nonetheless – I thought it was something I should let you all know about. Roop & Co. appears to be a small, more traditional PR firm located in Cleveland, OH. They don’t seem to have jumped on the social media bandwagon like many other PR firms, but what they do is equally cool. Roop & Co. specializes in PR, Graphic Design, and Investor Relations. The first 2 aren’t out of the ordinary, but you don’t see a lot of companies that do investor relations management for companies – at least I don’t.
If you’re intrigued by Roop, then you’re in luck. Their web site has quite a bit of information. You can check out their clients, their team, and their capabilities. Unfortunately, you’re not going to find anything on their jobs. Probably because they’re a small firm, they haven’t devoted a section of their site to Careers yet. That’s ok, though, because we found a posting for an Assistant Account Executive on the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism website (they post a lot of jobs actually). Roop is looking for “an up-and-coming PR superstar,” and although the job posting includes phrases like “the person must be a self starter and have the ability to hit the ground running” (those are some serious cliches), we still think that it looks like a cool gig. To apply, send a cover letter and resume to jobs@roopco.com.
