Advertising & PR

When it comes to Advertising we need to see the reality that each and everything in Media is Advt Driven and Marketing powered. The same applies on the Jobs as well. There are Jobs all over for those who justify the claim based on skill sets.
Though, government Jobs are not easy to find or grab. There are Lacs of people who apply for the Jobs and there are a few hundred out of Lacs who qualify to teach in schools. The government has nothing actually to do with our own self. We can stay on the better side by giving regular tests, guiding notes, and studies in advertising, TV and PR.
The government offers PR Executive of a District (Qualification MA in Mass Communication). A post-graduation degree in this subject will do the simple act of support for the library.
Government's DAVP which managed the Advertising and Publication of all Printed Advts along with the Digital Advertising also has possible profiles for this mentioned course.

Advanced Certificate means that you already have received a foundation course certificate or have fulfilled the eligibility to get the advanced one.
The sharing of this question is that the Career Prospects for Public Relation Management and Corporate Communication are quite good. PR is an always emerging field, because there is always a lack of competent Communicators to make a smart and strong Public Relation, whereas on the other side we see the Corporate Communication as an integral part of modern day Public Relations Management. Corporate Communication is the standard communication structure at an organization, where the channels and modes of Communication are predefined and there is minimal scope for a mismatch/misunderstanding or communication.
Scope in India: Jobs with the Government as Public Relations Development and Information Officers to manage the interaction with Public and internally as well. Along with this, the advanced certification, IF approved by the industry or government in some way the chances of getting a good job or assignment are high.

An M.Sc in Advertising Management is a very popular-innovative as well as the less taken domain of studying Mass Media or Mass Communication. While doing the course, one learns how to see the NEED, Plan, use the USP and create USP of the product in hand. The management of advertising of a particular product is to be done to see the impact. Along with this, the question demands response to career prospects for public relations. Public Relations, on the other hand, has similar notions. The jobs that can be done abroad or in India after pursuing an M.Sc advertising management as well as a Public Relations Management degree are:
1. Teaching
2. Research
3. Job in a News Channels
4. Consultancy to get the Advertising Campaign done of a brand
5. Public Relationship Agenciesn6. Event Management
7. Counsellor and Trainer
The above profiles can be developed for a job in the Advt. Management space.

If you have the passion, and the staying power, you can do it. Some simple steps that one can follow to make a career in the advertising sector. But before the steps, I would advise you to pursue a degree related to advertising and if not advertising, I would ask you to pursue a degree in mass communication as advertising is an extended sector related to mass communication.
Here are the steps:
Intern at an agency.
For an ad agency, an intern is a win-win situation.
Intake an entry level position.
Do freelance work.
Create spec ads.
Contact radio and television stations.
Get an advertising education.
Introduce yourself to key people.
Network.

There is a comparison asked for in this question. Video Editing Vs Advertising Management and Public Relations.
1. Video Editing is a single dimensional area where one shall work FOR the Advertising Management industry as well as for the Public Relationship work as well.
2. Editing is more of a Desk Job whereas Advt and PR Management is a comprehensive profile. The former keeps you in the later takes you to.field and vast areas of Public Interaction.
3. Editing is a Technical Skills; whereas PR and Advt Management is made of competence and multiple skills.
4. based on the experience I had in the Media as well as in Higher Ed, I would go for the Comprehensive Domain I.e. Advertising Management & Public Relations BUT I WOULD SURELY LEARN the nuances of Video Editing to enhance my Creativity and capability to manage that part of a bigger domain. Video Editing is a money earning work but quite 'small in impact'.

Go for a job if a good prospect is coming your way.
Justification: Media, Advertising, Marketing, Public Relations, Advt Management, Promotion, Media Production, Digital Marketing, Online Reputation Management etc a. Are such courses that must be put to use as early as possible. My rationale is not against doing higher studies, but you can keep studies along with the JOB.
Remember, that it is good to start your career in this domain as early as possible.
If the option of Higher Studies is based on absence of good job and an attractive option to Study at a Good Place then the Higher Ed option is also good.
Favour the idea of Vocational Education. As the western countries have when youngsters prefer to start their vocation early.
One more submission is that the 'course' as stated in the query has to be of good repute and for a good standing. .merely a certificate course won't do.much. There has to be a degree.
