Breaking into journalism is competitive. This session is designed to help you give yourself the best possible chance, whether you’re about to graduate, early in your career, or navigating your first newsroom role.
ITN recruitment consultant Dan Sado took an in-depth look at what actually makes a journalism CV stand out.
The first part of the session focused on how to present your experience, skills and potential in a way that helps you get the job you want.
The second half was a more practical workshop, reviewing a selection of CVs and discussing what works, what doesn’t, and why.
