What have I been doing since graduation you ask. Well it’s a detailed story, so I at least hope you’ve got a drink and/or a biscuit to get you through the more tedious parts of my tale.
I actu
ally have two degrees from the University of Lincoln. My first graduation (BA (Hons) Journalism and Politics) was September 2010, but only a few weeks later I was set to start my Masters degree in Journalism.
Another year goes by and by January 2012 I have a certificate which says I now have a Masters degree.
So now onto the job scene. I apply for jobs using the daily alerts from Media UK as my guide and supplementing that with searches on Twitter and various other job boards. I can’t say that I was successful with that initial search. My experience with Siren FM helped, but at the time I was competing with other Broadcast Journalists who had years more experience than I had. There seemed to be no way in.
