Work Experience


As a journalist I am forever looking for work experience opportunities; I have worked for two magazine company's beforehand, these being EgmontUK, and Sofeminine.co.uk.
Both of these experiences taught me different things about the workplace, the job as a whole, and what it is really like to work for a magazine day in, day out.

EgmontUK
EgmontUK is a leading children's publisher of books and magazines - this company was my first opportunity to work for a magazine, completing writing tasks, proof reading, and creating page layouts for the exciting magazines was perfect in introducing me to my first work experience.

Sofeminine
Sofeminine magazine was an entirely different experience - being employed as an intern for London Fashion Week, the tasks that were given to me were of a higher standard and needed to be completed by a certain deadline. This certainly tested my ability to work hand in hand and communicate with the team a lot more, most of us working alongside each other in order to keep up to date with the weeks' schedule and provide the LFW information on the sofeminine website on time.


Reveal Magazine
I am currently awaiting my third work experience, this time for Reveal magazine! I am very excited about working for the magazine for a week in March and I am looking forward to what the experience will bring.
I will be sure to keep you updated on how it goes!
