Media & Publishing

Graduate Scheme

Schemes include opportunities in TV, radio, journalism, digital media and account management.. It’s a particularly popular sector and firms generally value relevant work experience over academic qualifications. So you might need to complete an internship before applying for a full time graduate role.

Be aware that the many firms require you to complete online tests. You have to pass these before they even look at your application. It’s therefore critical that you practice before hand. You will greatly increase your chances of success.
