Hi Dan, Thanks for your reply.

I agree I am lucky. First of all I was in a position to complete unpaid internships even though my parents do not live in London. I did manage to get some decent experience but I think if you persevere enough you will find opportunities. The title of the position often sounds more impressive than it really is e.g. Media Assistant for a national campaign – I wasn’t paid and it didn’t lead to paid work.

You call yourself a ‘wanabe journalist’ yet you have seemingly already given up on this dream. Try journalism before you give up on it. Since I wrote this article I have embarked on a journalism course and it’s the best thing I ever did. Like you I was put off by people saying it’s impossible to get into journalism, but it’s important to ignore those people and pursue your own interests.

Hope this helps.
