Cal McAllister explains why being a trained journalist can be beneficial for any career because it trains you to take information from all over the place and boil it down to something people can comprehend quickly. It also teaches you good observation skills and trains the mind to figure out where things lead.
Key Takeaways:
- Journalism is a great starter point that can pave the way for all careers, especially ones like marketing
- Journalism teaches you how to exhaust your resources so that you can find information
- Journalism allows you to not only be creative about the way you find information but also on the way you break it down and distribute it to the world.
