It’s my Birthday!

It’s my Birthday!

It’s been a whole year since I officially launched Media Career Advice!

Since I launched I’ve ran a total of 21 courses and trained 230 people. I’ve supported 37 people on a one to one basis with their careers. I’ve mentored 3 individuals over 6 months through BECTU Cymru’s Mentoring 4 Screen and Coleg y Cymoedd. I’ve took part in webinars which a total of 130 people attended. I also took part in my first virtual careers fair for the RTS which saw a total of 365 people visit my booth. I’ve got 230 subscribers to my monthly newsletter and a staggering 498 followers across all of my social media which is absolutely amazing!

Taking the Time to Reflect

Taking the Time to Reflect

How often do you take the time to reflect on how far you’ve come?….I’m guessing it’s not that often!

The TV & Film industry is so fast paced that when we are working on productions we don’t have the capacity to be thinking about anything else and when we come to the end of our productions we are just looking for our next role.

How I got into the Industry

It’s coming up to a year since I launched Media Career Advice and I’ve been so busy in that time that I haven’t even written a blog post! I’m going to try and get a new blog written every 1 – 2 months as there are lots of subjects that I want to share with you all from industry insights to tips and tricks based on my experience.

I thought I’d kick them all off with a bit more about my career and my route into the TV industry.  Cue embarrassing photos!

Getting the most from your CV Webinar

Your CV is probably the single most important resource you have when applying for jobs.

Whether you're freelance, staff, on contract or just starting out, your CV is often the first chance an employer will get to know about you, your skills, experience and education. Based on what they read, they might pick up the phone and invite you for interview. Or they might not!

For the second year running I’m one of the mentors at Coleg y Cymoedd, South Wales (you can just see me at the back at one of our mentors meals last year).
