I’m getting an expected identifier error when I try to compile my code.
careerURL is setup like this in .h file:
@property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *careerURL;
And synthesized like this in .m file:
@synthesize careerURL;
I really do not understand what is the issue here. The exact code works in another viewcontroller.

You should either use dot
.syntax,Or Objective-C message syntax,
Not both at the same time.
