Working in TV Part 4
Happy New Year to you. Thank you for reading my journals up to now. Hopefully you have had a look at some websites and maybe even created yourself a profile. If you need further advice about that particular step then please feel free to get in touch.

Working in TV Part 2
So you have decided to create that profile have you? Remember this is not like your usual CV, it doesn’t really matter what qualifications you got at school, whether you were head of the student union, or the need for references. Productions and agencies would like to know about the person that you are now so honesty and optimism are important. By all means mention your previous job roles or careers, no need to list employers etc, just mention that you were previously a chef, a barrister, a market trader, a police officer, anything really. In this world selections are often initially made from applicants who have real life experience in the roles being cast.
