Mosherchik Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Back to uni today we art students start back later for some reason! Had an email disagreement with tutor over my work placement, I dont see how stuffing envelopes is adequate media industry training when I can do that in the PAID job I already have! He wont accept my job as media industry training...sod! So will quit the work placement I have already and attempt to get on student radio. If that fails...any other suggestions? Local radio stations such as Hallam/BBC Sheffield wont take you on unless youre a postgrad (altho my jammy mate has got a placement there cos he knows someone very high up, grrrrrrrr!) Sheffield Star is also the same...dont wanna know unless youre a postgrad! How are you supposed to gain experience if no one takes the chance to give you any? xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Have you tried some of the smaller radio stations (Eg Peak 107 in Chesterfield) if you're keen to get into radio? Or, what about trying some smaller newspapers such as the Rotherham Advertiser, Worksop Guardian etc? A good place to find media organisations is http://www.mediauk.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazB Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 That's shocking.. I applied for a job (didn't get it) that would have meant £180 a week in tax and NI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(plus clothing allowance sometimes!) Im not worth being taxed but they still take it from me.....then I get it back anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
