We Want Your Advice!
Help the Beyond Bylines team with an upcoming blog post. As many journalism school students prepare to graduate, we want to know what advice you have for them. If you have any tips or tricks for new journalists entering the job market, we want to hear about it; whether it’s recommendations for a resume, job interviews, what to expect on the job, or anything else. Your advice might be included in our blog post later this month (it will be anonymous).
Email the team with your input.
