How to get a career in media

A must read post by Richard Sambrook which looks at the three eras of getting into the media.Note that it is allabout blagging your way in


1950-1990

Go to University, preferably Oxbridge, and take an arts degree to develop your mind. Join a local newspaper or radio station. Blag your way in


1990-2015

Take a media studies course that will teach you digital production - or computer science that will teach you how to build web pages. Blag your way in.


2015-

Take a series of highly vocational courses to give you the widest set of skills you can manage - coding, video, business, psychology, economics, law, web science, marketing. Blag your way in.
