Arts and Entertainment

“Lights, camera, action!” Those words create a special kind of excitement among those who seek a career in entertainment and the arts. Whether in front of the camera, on the museum walls, on stage, or behind the scenes, the allure of a career in this field is incredible.

There are few people who would not take an opportunity to work in the limelight of the entertainment and arts world. However, because of its popularity, it is probably the most competitive job market in the world.

Despite its prominence in our society, the industry itself is relatively small when compared to others, such as the manufacturing or services industries. The hub of activity is primarily centered around major cities – New York and Los Angeles, for example, dominate the film and television pieces of the arts and entertainment management activity. These facts simply add to the difficulty of breaking in to entertainment and arts careers.

Networking is essential when consider- ing a career in these highly competitive fields. It is critical to prepare an effective approach to creating your network and I am happy to help you tackle the challenge. So, come and see me, John Noble, specialist in the career areas of entertainment and the arts, and we’ll put together a plan to help you enter this very competitive job market. In the meantime, check out some of the information contained in the Vault and Wetfeet database that we subscribe to in addition to the many other sites we have identified as useful for those exploring career options in entertainments and the arts.
