Qualifications and Experience

Jobs in the media are highly sought-after. Work experience is extremely valuable to your application as it demonstrates a genuine interest, and shows you have at least the organisational capabilities to do the job.

In this field it is not necessary the most creative or naturally able candidates who are given jobs. Due to the over-subscribed nature of this type of work, it is usually the most determined people who succeed.

Training and Development

You are unlikely to receive much beyond your initial training in these jobs. Employers are unlikely to let you study part time, and this side of your development will have to be something you take control of. On the other hand, the work can be extremely varied and job changes or promotions are common, so there are always new skills to acquire.
