What is a career?

from The Media Mentor

In this episode I discuss media careers and what that really means. I talk about the importance of practical advice in career development and speak to Dr. Eric Fraser, a psychologist specializing in leadership coaching and soft skills. Eric emphasizes the normalcy of feeling stuck in a career and the importance of learning to overcome it. He highlights the significance of confidence and assertiveness, a word I think is very important for media candidates. We also discuss the evolving nature of careers and how the traditional staircase type progression does not exist in many sectors now and that advice and guidance when you are young can be confusing.To find out more about The Media Mentor, listen to episode 1 and to see how I could help your career head to https://www.themediamentor.info/servicesOn the webite you will also find 6 pages of media jobs to browse.If you have any questions about media careers or a story that you would like to share then please get in touch.More details about The Media Mentor can be found here.For all the latest job listings head here.To get alerts on media jobs as they drop follow the MM WhatsApp channel here.
