As a public relation officer, the most rewarding yet the most challenging part is when I meet new people. When you introduce yourself to others as a public relation officer, it is immediately becoming a challenging situation because you need to create good communication and connection with them as you represent the organization that you work for. When you succeed to create a good connection and communication with others, especially new people that you meet, it becomes a rewarding moment.
