Offline Resources
The internet's not the only place to find journalism jobs. Here're a few offline sources to check out.
Books: You won't get a job by reading a book... or will you? All books linked to Amazon, which helps me, and you, if there are any used ones, that is.
The Guardian Media Directory - Every year, the Guardian updates this handy book, which exhaustively lists every magazine, newspaper, ect in the industry. Was very useful in making this site...
Newspapers: Most post their jobs online these days, but no harm in seeing the original advert...
Media Guardian: Comes out Mondays. Media jobs do run other days as well.
Independent: Their media section also comes out on Mondays. Mmm... competition.
Magazines: Don't apply for a magazine -- a consumer one, at least -- without reading the damn thing first. Really. Some run writing contests as well, and they're a good place to find specific contact details. Trade magazines are good places to look too.
Press Gazette: So many jobs, I can't keep them straight. Might be easier if you order their paper version...
Know of any good books, magazines, ect? Let me know: jjobslondon @ hotmail.com or comment...
