What can I do with a Communication Studies degree?

-
A Communication Studies certificate or degree helps you develop the wide range of communication skills that employers seek, but a Certificate, AA, BA, or MA in Communication Studies isn't always listed as a requirement in job postings.

Confusing? That's exactly why this blog exists. Every Monday, this blog highlights a job posting in the Modesto, California area for which COMM graduates, majors, minors, or certificate holders are exceptionally qualified. Some of these jobs require a COMM degree, but most list keywords and phrases that indicate the desirability of the communication skills you developed while completing your COMM classes. 

Job Search Tips: 
  • Looking for a job and don't want to wait for weekly posts? No problem. Sign up for an indeed.com account now to access many of these postings.
