Mentorships: the Best Thing Since Sliced Bread?
Mentorships (or specialized radio, film, or broadcasting internships) are something we are quite fond of here at Indie Wolf, especially since a few us actually know individuals that have completed such a program. How cool is it that you can get one-on-one training with a professional in your desired field of work at a fraction of the cost of a traditional four year university? And for those of skeptics of the program, how about all the perks the program provides? Besides being a more financially pragmatic solution, the training occurs around your schedule (allowing you to still work) and you are exposed to a number of contacts within the industry. In fact, mentorship programs typically have a 100% job placement rate for individuals that complete the program. Pretty impressive. We happened to find another guy that seems to agree with us…check out his post.
