How do I get a job in the field I am studying for?

How do I get a job at a TV, radio or news station?

• Im interesting in pursing a job at a TV, radio or a news station. I currently have a job as a warehouse worker and Im so sick of it. In the meantime, I studying to get my CCNA (in the IT field), but I also have an big interest in the TV/radio field. I took a 1 year of media technology in school and 4 semesters of TV production at a local community college. And Ive been volunteering for the TV/audio department at my church (which is pretty large and well-known around the world) for almost two years now. Im not trying to be a news reporter, radio personality or a executive-level employee but rather someone who works behind scenes. I wish I could go to a technical school or a get a Bachleors Degree in Communications, but I simply cant afford to because Im in so much debt right now. I would love to work in that type of environment though. Please help.

• Answer:

  Speak to the organization and see if you get your foot in the door as anything. I know 2 friends who worked as custodians and are not working in good positions on the stations. This is a VERY competitive field. U have to have strong determination to pursue this. Talk to people in the business and really, if you have take out another loan to get the proper credentials, then do it. Good luck!
