I’m in my fourth year of college and I’m a Journalism major. For the last few months I’ve been interning (unpaid) at a theatre close to my campus. I’ve been doing everything like writing PSAs, copyediting, planning events, taking care of actor documentation and putting together playbills for each play that comes out.
But now I need a PAYING job because the theatre is non-profit and can’t hire me.
But every communications/marketing job wants you to have 5+ years of experience. I can’t volunteer at the theatre for 5 years unpaid. I have bills to pay.
