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.
Hi! I’m Conor Magee and I’m one in the growing network of International Alumni.
I studied Architecture at the University of Lincoln and graduated in 2008. Since then, worked as an Estimator for Harrier Aluminium in Newark, and in 2011 I was given the opportunity to intern at UPMC Corporate Construction in Pittsburgh, PA.
During my tenure I met with some of the largest construction companies, most technical architecture firms, and most influential policy makers in the Midwest. I loved seeing brand new designs of massive brand new hospitals and future development for other regional donation work such as parks and physical rehab centers.
By virtue of an American Passport, I had no visa issues and decided to stay in the most livable city in the US and joined my current architecture firm JMAC Architects. I manage commercial hospitality projects and rapid construction industrial projects.
