As expected, written communication skills are essential when working on PR campaigns. Ipsos hiring managers are interested in candidates who have made efforts to strengthen their communication skills over the years.

Talk about different projects and situations where you had the opportunity to utilize and build your writing skills. Also, highlight any strengths you have with a particular writing style or possibly a public affairs project you worked on where your writing skills played a critical role.

"In my prior positions, writing has been a key component of my job responsibilities. As an analyst, my writing skills were used to communicate to a variety of team members with varying backgrounds. When I moved on to public affairs, I learned to write for an even broader general audience through a variety of press releases. As I exercised my writing skills, I found the challenge was to write an explanatory piece in a clear and concise manner. Through many different PR projects, I can confidently say this is now a strength of mine, and I look forward to possibly providing this skill to Ipsos."
