Guidance from job tag (Japanese)
この仕事に就くために、特に学歴や資格は必要とされない。大学でマスコミ系を専攻した人が有利となる場合もあるが、実務経験が重視される傾向が強く、専攻した学部や学科に関係なく、幅広い人材が活躍している。
 自社の経営方針、経営戦略、ビジョンなどの企業コンセプトをよく理解し、業界全体の現状や市場動向なども把握する。豊富な情報と知識を持ちつつ、分析力と伝達能力を駆使し、その時々にあったより良い表現方法を採る柔軟さが必要となる。そのため、採用と同時に広報担当部門に配属されるケースは多くなく、他部門から広報担当部門に異動してくるのが一般的である。
 企業のイメージアップを図るには、客観的で正確な情報を発信すると同時に、問題が生じた場合にどのように情報を外部に公表するかといった、冷静かつバランス感覚をもって情報提供を行う判断力も欠かせない。
 マスコミ関係者やグラフィックデザイナーなどのクリエイターと仕事をともにする機会が多いため、マスコミに関する基本的な知識や、クリエイターに指示ができるだけの調整力、説得力も必要となる。企業を代表して外部と打ち合わせするような機会が多いため、対応には充分な気配りや丁寧さなども求められる。
