So, after applying for work experience at the BBC I have been offered a week of work placement at the BBC in Salford working in the Children's Design department! I didn't have high expectations that I would be offered anything as I had heard it is very competitive and I thought there might be people with more experience that would be picked over me but I am thrilled that I will be able to go and work here for a week as it would be experience of working in-house as a MAKER so I should be able to test the water and assess if this is something I want to do after uni rather than work freelance.
It will also be an opportunity to see how studios work, how I can contribute to a team and to network with industry professionals. (I have heard that some people have started with work experience and gone on to be offered a job...)
I will be there from the 7TH MAY - 11TH MAY so I will be missing a week of uni but I hope that it will be a really valuable experience for me. I am staying in Salford and have arranged my own accommodation.
