SPP: Graduate Job Application

I recently made an application to the Informa Media Academy programme. Informa plc is a leading Media organisation with activities spanning Publishing, Events and Performance improvement across a number of specialist market sectors. A FTSE-250 company with offices in 40+ countries, 150 businesses and over 10,000 high calibre people worldwide. Informa is the largest publicly-owned organiser of conferences and courses in the world with an output of over 10,000 events annually.

The 12 month programme would be based in London and would cover experience in the following areas:

Editorial
Events Research
Reports
Data Forecasting

Although this is not directly linked to Audio-Visual Production I think that the skills I have gained on the Multimedia course can be effectively applied to this job role. After the 12 months I feel that the experience will allow me to develop skills that would allow me to pursue a career in Producing & Directing. The programme will give me awareness in an international marketplace and I will be able to learn new managerial and transferable skills.

The application and interview process is long, I am looking forward to see if my application progresses to the next stage.
