Most law students I meet with are unwilling to start as an assistant to build the skills they need to do entertainment business and legal affairs at a high level. Don't be that student. Shadowing a senior business affairs executive as an assistant for 1 year will teach the the verbal lexicon and speed that you need to do this job right... I know A LOT of smart attorneys who want to practice entertainment law. What separates those who go far are those who learn both skill and speed, which you can only learn in the trenches. #starting #jobs #entertainmentlawyer

What entry-level jobs can free time for my filmmaking passion? Answers: https://lnkd.in/gKU5gUvE #FilmmakingPassion #CareerChange #EntryLevelJobs Hey everyone! 🌟 I’ve been thinking a lot about balancing my day job and my passion for filmmaking, and I could use some advice. My barista gig is eating up a ton of my time—like, I’m talking a 2-hour daily commute and about 40-44 hours of work per week. That’s roughly 10 hours a day spent on something I’m just not passionate about. 😩 Here’s the thing: I really love the art of filmmaking, but my current job leaves me too wiped out to dive into that world. Not to mention, most of the film industry seems to focus on commercial projects that don’t resonate with my artistic vision. It’s a tough spot. I’ve considered keeping filmmaking a side passion and finding something else that allows me to pursue my interests more freely. So, I’m curious: What are some entry-level jobs that can give me back my time and energy? Ideally, I’m looking for something with weekends and evenings off so my partner and I can collaborate on our creative projects. 🎥❤️ Here are a few factors to think about: Work-Life Balance: Finding a job ...

📌Why former film production workers should be at the top of your hire list! Pt. 1 Many former TV employees, such as myself, have run into an awkward stage when trying to get into the corporate world. By February 2nd, 2024, it’ll be exactly a year since I’ve been in the corporate job market. Throughout almost twelve long months of countless recruiters giving me feedback such as, “We’re not sure if you’d fit our requirements based on your prior experience,” I’ve come to conclude that while yes, the corporate world can withhold a different field of work, members of the corporate community would be WIDELY impressed to witness the amount of work and willpower that production employees put in for just one working day alone. I assure you that all production workers are qualified for EVERY corporate role we deliberately apply for. Ixa Sotelo, a LinkedIn user, happens to have an extensive film industry background, such as I do. After recently stumbling across her post titled, “Why You Should Hire a TV Production Employee,” I quickly became inspired to add to her approach: ✅Work Ethic: The work ethic ALONE of a production employee in any department is simply unmatched. I’ve worked for several productions for over 6 years to confirm this. We come from 12-hour minimum daily shifts, including production office workers. We sacrifice balanced sleep and often don’t have lunch breaks past thirty minutes, while office workers always insist on working during their lunch breaks. For the sake of getting the work done, we manage insanely tight time schedules and do our best to minimize as much human error as possible. Go to my next post for part 2! ⬇️Share this with someone you know who can relate to either perspective for engagement to reach more people! ⬇️Also, leave your opinions below in the comments. I’d love to discuss this topic! ——————— #jobsearch #followup #jobhunt #jobseekers #hiringmanagers #networking #connections #jobalert #marketing #careers #resumes #experience #creativejobs #industry #qualified #hireme #recruiter #talent

Dear hiring officers and companies, Comms professionals are not jack-of-all-trades. We are specialized experts in writing, designing, filmmaking, editing, and more. Bundling multiple roles into one job description leads to burnout, dilutes our impact, and undermines our expertise. It's time to recognize our value and respect our specialization. Let's create a more sustainable and efficient work environment by appreciating the power of specialization in comms. #RespectCommsPros #SpecializationMatters #Sustainability #Efficiency #Communications #JobDescriptionsMatter #Media
