Today I am going to be researching into the types of creative and media jobs available in the South England region. My goal for today is to have made a word document noting some of media industry jobs there are and the the types of qualifications you need to apply for them. In addition to this I will be looking at the types of pay involved in the different areas.
Firstly I made a spider diagram of the overall roles in the creative and media industry. This helped me to name all of the areas I will be researching into depth and understanding all the different areas.
The next stage was to create a more detailed spider diagram into all the jobs in the overall roles of the creative and media industry. For example theatre is a specific area of creative and media and there are many jobs that entail in this area such as lighting, graphics designer, choreographer, actor and many more. The reason I did this was to understand the job roles that i could think of without researching into them and then when researching I would learn of the other various roles which I had not included in my spider diagram.
I then started researching by visiting the job websites such as:
www.monster.co.uk
www.jobsite.co.uk
www.reed.co.uk
www.totaljobs.com
These websites are there for people to put job vacancies and then people can research their specific area and choose the job they then want to apply for.
Overall these websites meant that I could specify the type of job I was searching for and any other areas I wanted to make more specific, such as the type of qualifications you would need for the job and the amount of money you would be paid. This was all included in the websites and it helped me find the different types of jobs.
After doing this, which was a very effective way of finding jobs in my area to my specification I went onto local companies and searched if they had any vacancies. For example I went onto galaxy south coast. This then meant I narrowed my search down to a specific area to analyze the types of jobs there were in my area to do with the creative and media industry.
The next stage that I did was to record the information that I found into a word document, I wrote where the information was from, what the job was, where it was, the company that was advertising and the qualifications you would need to apply for the job. In addition I also added how much money this job offered.
Throughout this stage I recorded my results on to a word document, this includes pictures, information about the job and the source it was collected from. I gathered evidence of this from numerous websites the next thing I will need to do is collect brochures, newspapers, flyers and entertainment guides and leaflets.
I undertook a well focused investigation into the job roles and understood the opportunities in the chosen region. I also made a good ranging summary of the creative and media job roles in this region. I also made detailed explanations of them. Finally, when recording the information I understood the qualifications needed or the types of job available in this industry. Finally when researching for the jobs I made detailed searches and researched predictable roles in this industry and also looked into the more unexpected and unusual job roles.
Overall I have recorded a numerous amount of creative and media jobs and I have shown strengths in how to specify my job search and the ares I can collect this information from . In addition to this, I understand the large range of jobs in this specific industry and know the qualifications which will be needed for each area. Furthermore I have increased my awareness of the range of jobs and roles in the industry. I found jobs that I didn't know about in this specific area of the industry and researched into them. I now know what a large industry that creative and media is and have a better understanding of all the job roles in it. I have sourced many of the jobs from various places and researched into the requirements of the roles.
