I am interested in all 3 of these jobs because they are something that I am looking to going into as a future career. I believe that I have a creative mind that I can use to create a lot of different ideas at a fast pace. I believe that I will be an ideal candidate for all of these jobs as I work well with other people as well as working solo. These skills will benefit me because I will be able to work well with a lot of people in the production crew but I will also be able to achieve solo tasks to the best of my ability. Considering I have a high level of communication skills, I will be able to work well with a lot of different people and also a lot of different production teams, moving from one to another won't throw me or scare me in any way.
What are the necessary skills for these jobs?
For these jobs, you have to be able to work under pressure as you will be working with different deadlines and expectations to meet. Being creative is a massive help as you need to be able to come up with unique ideas to be able to make money from other production companies and the intended audiences. You have to be able to know all methods of research, knowing how to preform and also find a result from the data collected from it. By knowing all of this, you will be more appealing to the employers and will find it easier to find a job with different employers.
What contracts would be offered and how would this benefit you?
As all these job adverts are advertising full-time paid jobs, I believe that this will benefit me in a way that a part time job wouldn't. Working with a company full-time will help me broaden my skills and really help me fit in with my co-workers. Working full time will also help me to realise the pressures and the expectations of the industry quicker and will allow me to adjust to them quicker.
What employment legislations will you have to look out for?
Some jobs like these ones above require an age limit, meaning you have to be a certain age to be able to preform the tasks needed for the job. Some also require a certain amount of qualifications to be able to know what is happening. If you don't have the knowledge or qualifications, you won't be able to fulfil the roles properly leading to the production company failing to meet their deadlines and expectations causing them to lose money.
