1. I would like to know what steps she took in college to get to where she is know. I also want to know if she just does graphic design for the bands or if she does more aspects of PR.
2. I assumed that he would get into a lot of shows for free and that she meets bands there that ask her to be their PR person. She proved me wrong when she says she buys a lot of her own V.I.P tickets to show so she can have a shot at free lancing for a band.
3. I learned that she does a lot more than just graphic design from the band and that she learned a lot of her job from her internship experience, not from her college courses. She works for a few different start up band and she does a lot of free lancing to get her foot in the door. She also does not get paid a lot for all of the work she does.
4.Yes, she hit all of the questions I wanted her to answer in number one. I especially appreciated how she walked through the different steps of her job and discussed different aspects of PR she worked on for the bands.
5.I joined the PRSSA club on campus and have been going to a few of their panels. At the panels I make sure to take down any information I find helpful and after the panel is over I try and talk to the people who presented. I also have a linked in and follow the speakers after each panel. I feel like PRSSA is very important for networking and that it will need to internship opportunities in the near future.

1. I hope to learn how she landed her job and what led her to chose that profession. I am also curious to know what her daily duties consist of.
2. I assumed that as an artist's assistant manager she would be earning more. She doesn't  sound too happy with the pay and after hearing everything she has to do, I completely understand. I'm also surprised of how much of the dirty work she has to do that you usually wouldn't associate with a "manager" title.
3. I learned what determination should look like. She knows where she needs to be so she will find a way to get there. Paying for VIP tickets for a concert just to find their manager is clever.
4. She discussed how she landed her job which is what I was most curious about and its really cool that it all started with an assignment like ours. She also discussed her daily duties, which she described as listening to a bunch of crappy music, but its so interesting to hear of all the stuff you never even stop to think about.
5. This assignment will definitely help me reach out to people who I would otherwise never come into contact with. And after hearing Talia, I will definitely be using social media more to connect with people in the industry.

1. I really hope I will learn something new that I can benefit from since the field I am going in is Public Relations.At the moment I am still thinking about what exactly I want to do with PR and entertainment sounds very interesting.

2. I assumed that what she does she gets paid hourly like most jobs do. But it turns out I was proved wrong, she gets paid through an individual project and to me that was shocking because I also assumed they made more money and I am glad she addressed that because that is something I definitely do not want.

3. One fact I learned from her was that most of the things you learn is from actually doing the job, trial and error. She wasn't taught in school how to do the stuff she is doing. It was all on her own.

4. Talia did not share anything about her being in PR since she is in the entertainment industry  but she did tell me that PR does help them with sending them certain news or events but she did not know much of what PR does.

5.) I am currently looking for someone who works in the PR area and after the interview I hope I will get well informed about how the job opportunity is and if it is something I want. After Talia spoke to me after class and informing me about the entertainment industry I right away knew that, that wasn't what I wanted since I am looking for a more stable, good paying career.

1. I am hoping to learn something in the public relations department because that is the field I hope to pursue post graduation. Im not sure which field I'd like to practice PR in, so it'd be cool to see what an entertainment PR does.
2. When I think of an assistant artist manager, I assumed that they did not have much of a role, thinking that they do small things such as fetch coffee or maybe set up a few props for a music video. What I learned is that an assistant artist manager position has a huge role; they must attend to every need of the artist. They are all about what they need, where they need it and when they need it. Talia also looks for singers and songwriters to sign with.
3. One fact I learned is that you have to know how to network in order to get a successful job and put yourself out there because there are always people who want to learn more than you.
4. Talia did not express that she was any part of the public relations department, but she did say that she promotes by using drop cards. She promotes streaming music because the more people who stream their clients music, the more money they all make. While that is not directly apart of the PR department, I imagine that is along the lines of what the job entails for entertainment.
5. My grandparents write books and have a public relations department to reach out to younger audiences and spread their messages. I talk to them often and help out the best I can with their social media accounts.

1. I hope to learn how she got her job and if she knew someone in the industry to help her get the job.
2. After the presentation I was proved wrong after the speaker said that the best was to get a job is networking yourself. It will not be easy to get a job handed to you.
3. The speaker said that she does not get paid salary to start out. You get paid through an individual project.
4. She answered my question when she said she got a job after contacting a person through Instagram.
5. I am not sure exactly what I want to do for a job but I know I want to do an interview with someone who helps people.

1) Throughout Farias' presentation, I hope to discover some obstacles, if not, a challenge that she experiences in her career and how she is dealing and/or overcoming them.

2) AFTER her presentation: Share one assumption you had about the industry or the job market that the guest speaker countered or proved wrong.

3) Share one fact you learned from her.

4) Did she discuss the item you listed in No. 1? What did you learn about it? Did you ask her to address it? Why/why not?

5) Share what you're doing to gain insight from and access to mentors in your field of choice.

1. I'm curious to know how Talia prepared herself for her current job and what kind of challenges she faced along the way.
2. I assumed that her salary would be way more and also I was kind of surprised that she wasn't being paid by the hour.
3. I learned that no amount of school is really going to prepare us for jobs in the music/entertainment industry. Talia emphasized you cannot get anywhere without networking and putting yourself out there. I also learned what a "rider" is and how crucial the details are when it comes to a performance set.
4. Talia's journey consisted of a lot of hard, extra work. She encouraged us to not be afraid of freelancing and to offer our skills without pay, as an investment into our career.
5. I have been doing a lot of research on different kinds of lawyers to see which field I want to pursue. I have connections with a lawyer who has his own firm and thankfully, through him, I will be able to meet and talk to people about the career I want to pursue.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I hope to learn how she is applying all she learned in college into her line of work. I've always been curious as to what goes behind the scenes in the entertainment industry. I also want to learn how she handles her side ventures like graphic design alongside her career as an assistant manager.

2. On assumption from the industry  that I had was that she would be making more money being in position that she is in however, that is not the case.
3. One fact that really stood out me was how she stated that networking is extremely important in the entertainment industry and how it is vital to get your name out there.
4. Yes, she did touch on her journey to becoming the assistant manager. She graduated from CSUF as a entertainment major. She then volunteered to help work for her manager, and then she gained a internship. The internship led to her getting the job.
5. I think just be more willing to reach out to people that are in the field of my choice and as Talia said, social media can be a way to contact those people.

2. One assumption that I had about her job in the music industry is that it pays well. But in reality she isn't paid well enough to support her fully.
3. One fact that I learned from her is the music industry is a really tough business and that networking is the key to finding a job in this industry.
4. Talia gave advice on how to pursue a career in the entertainment industry which was something I was curious to know. She stated that it is super important to put yourself out there and to not be afraid to reach out to people in the career of you choice. Networking is very important in this career.
5. I plan on becoming more involved in clubs such as PRSSA and Titian TV. I also will network more and not be afraid to reach out to people.

1. Im hoping to learn about what her typical day is like. Including how graphic designing ties in.
2. I really did believe that it wasn’t going to be that hard to get a job like hers but she made me believe that it is a really hard industry to get into.
3. She seems to be struggling and very stressed out which is not the greatest thing to pick up on from a guest speaking about a job your interested in. One thing she did that caught my attention was the she in graphic designing, and how she needed to learn it on her o

4. She did answer my question so for that reason I didn’t have to ask.
5. I’m not doing as much as should be doing because its hard and intimidating to get your foot in the door.

1) I hope to see how she handled pursuing a job after graduation as well as any internships she had done in the past. As someone who also wants to go into the music and entertainment industry for public relations, I want to hear anything and everything she has to share! From challenges, to any fun aspects about her job.

# data[].attributes.body
1. My hope is that she will share what her first steps were into the industry she is now working in and what things she would share with those who would follow in her footsteps.

2.  I assumed that experienced people in this industry would be more willing to give a hand to those who are just putting their foot through the door but such is not the case.

3.  Talia reinforced my understanding that, in this industry as in many others, a person is not paid per hour of work they put in. They are paid per project and that if the result is satisfactory. She also highlighted and emphasized the importance of networking and making yourself available to people, for free if necessary. I appreciated the honesty with which she shared her experiences with us, especially the non-glamorous realities of the entertainment industry.

4. Talia did share some of the initial steps she took in order to get to where she is now in her career. She not only benefited from the connections one of her professors had but also reached out to many people on the higher ladder rungs of the industry.  Soon after she started making herself available to people and creating a presence that would be felt by those in need of her service.

5. I'm planning on interviewing my pastor about his experience in the ministry and the realities of the work that he does. I've been meeting with the pastors and elders of my church on a fairly regular basis and talking to them about what things I can be doing now to prepare for ministry.

1. During her visit I am hoping to learn how she got into the entertainment indsutry, what her job requires her to do on a daily basis, and any advice she has for people who want to get into that industry.

2. One assumption I had about her job as an assistant manager in the music industry was that it paid enough to make a decent living than an hourly wage job but I was wrong. The pay is actually not that great and is below average so you would most likely need supplemental income especially if living in LA.

3. One fact I learned from her is that the only way you will make it in the entertainment industry is by networking and building relationships due to how competitive the industry is.

4. Talia did discuss my #1 item and that was how she got into that field which is by constant networking.

5. I am planning on becoming more involved with events and joining PRSSA to get my feet wet and start networking with people that can potentially help me with jobs in the future.

1.  I hope Talia shares her past experiences leading up to her current job. Hopefully she gives insight on what her job entails.
2. I assumed she had just one job but after hearing her presentation I learned she does way more. Talia spoke on the multiple jobs she does within the assistant position, in addition to her freelance graphic design job.
3. Networking is key. I learned you must have connections if you want to excel in this industry.
4. The speaker did discuss her internship experiences and spoke the truth on the industry. I liked that she was very honest and open about her experiences thus far.

5. I plan on going to more industry events. I learned from Talia that it's better to start networking now that way you can have contacts prior to graduating.

1. I am hoping to gain some insight on what it means to do PR for music groups. I would like to know if she attends every show and then writes her releases based on the experience or if she goes to their shows to get inspired for her graphic art. I also want to know is she only works on her clients graphic imagining or if she works on other aspects of PR as well.

1. I am hoping to learn how she transitioned from university into her career and what advice she has for us about making the adjustments.
2. One assumption I had about her job was that she get a regular salary. I found it interesting she is paid per project but it is cool she can take on multiple projects to increase her income.
3. One thing I learned from her is that although school prepared her it is the hand's on experience working her internship that really gave her the knowledge she needs for her career. I thought it was amazing she taught herself graphic design. It is definitely something good to know and I would like to have that in my repertoire of skills.
4. Talia shared the transition she made from school to working and how she spent hours working 2 jobs as well as taking high level classes and doing her internship. She seemed really driven and I loved her advice about just networking and putting yourself out there.
5. I am currently in the process of drafting up my message to send to the fast food maven Nancy Luna from OC Register. I have been attending PRSSA meetings as well as checking out their internship pages to get an idea of what I want to get experience in for the future.
