Finding a job

Looking for jobs in the media industry can be hard, because lots of jobs are internally advertised and you need experience to get the job in the first place. The big list is a list composed of newly advertised jobs in the media, the list is up to date and a good place to start looking if you are looking for a job in the media.


The BBC website for job applications can be found at <https://careers.bbc.co.uk/fe/tpl_bbc01.asp?newms=se>

It is a helpful website for people like myself who don't want to work freelance, because it has jobs and trainee positions.

This is the ITV website, it also lists all of the jobs available and is also good, they also have an apprenticeships page. <http://www.itvjobs.com>

This is the similar Channel 4 website <http://jobs.channel4.com/>

The Channel 5 website

In terms of careers and what sort of jobs I will apply for when I have finished my degree I think my skill set and personality will be best suited to a stable long term job, I would hope looking in places like the 4 main UK based channels is a good place to look because I will ideally find a job in England, hopefully Southern based, I think that it would be a good idea to try and get work experience with these places. I also think that because of the continuous nature of television that I would seek to work in this part of the media industry because the movie industry is more tenuous and mobile, whereas I want a job where location is more static. I am however aware that things don't always work out this way so I am open to trying different things, but I think it is best to aim where I intend to be and see what other opportunities present themselves.
