What should I do to maximize my chances of getting a job in journalism?
I'm super interested in becoming a journalist but everyone I talk to says its a really hard field to get hired in especially by major news organizations like the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal. So I was just wondering if there were any programs I could join or things I could do to further my chances into getting hired as a journalist?
What advice would you give to an economics & politics graduate who wants to get into journalism? ?
I have a bachelor's degree in political science and international relations, and am studying for a master's in economics. I haven't studied journalism other than 2 courses in my bachelor's though I've done some volunteer work in media. I'm a good writer and communicator and I think I have a good skill set and range of experiences that would make me a good journalist, but I'm afraid that because I don't have formal training in it, I won't be able to do it. I don't have a particular preference for online, print, radio or television journalism at this point, though I'd probably feel more comfortable with (written) online and print at first. I live in Berlin, Germany and would like to stay here for the medium-term, but would be willing to move elsewhere for journalistic work. Thank you!
