National Press
National press is news papers in a country that has sections in their papers which contains adverts for workplaces, and helps help people find a job for themselves, simply by looking through paged in a news paper. There are news papers such as '''Guardian" offer internships and opportunities for TV and film for people to get jobs. In the paper you can find adverts for multiple types of jobs, even ones in the film and TV industry, such as a cable puller, or a boom operator, you can even find a very good job that relates to film and TV, that could get you very far in the industry, such as a director or a producer. These adverts related to jobs, are available to everyone who sees the paper, which can seem convenient to the employees, but since the papers are available to everyone, which means that everyone can get a equal chance to get a job, that might relate to the film and TV industry, there tends to be a lot of competition, when it comes to getting a job, since if a lot of people see the opportunity, a lot of people would want the job, which can be annoying. The employer in the TV and film industry can get a lot of people wanting jobs, since by having these offers, available to everyone through the news paper, a lot of people will see the advert, and again would want a job, so the employer can get a new employee to do a job, such as a camera operator, or a lighting supervisor. Because these adverts for jobs can be seen by a large amount of people, there will be many people that see it, that wont even be interested in a job, so they wont always have people that are interested in a job. Sometimes, by having these adverts in papers can be a waste of money, if people don't even see the advert, and also, the adverts cost a lot of money, to be put on the papers, which again, could be either a very good choice, or a waste of money.
Trade Press
Trade pass is when a magazine, focuses on a particular interests, of people. There is a magazine titled "Media Week~" which focuses on jobs in the film and TV industry, which can seem convenient to unemployed people wanting jobs in the film and TV industry. These types of magazines are able to look for jobs, just like national press, but with magazines, for the employee that they are interested in, and they are all in one magazine, such as they could be interested in becoming a producer, and they could possibly find that job in the magazine. These types of magazines require someone to know about the magazine to look at it, which might be inconvenient for the employee, as they might not even know about the magazine, so they cant look at it. The employer are able to target a certain type of audience easily, as people who are interested. in certain things, will look at the magazine, but these magazines need to be able to access the content,or the audience wont even be able to see the magazine.
Internet
This is when there is a website that is not a company but advertises jobs, to help people get employed. There is a website called "Mandy.com" which is a website that helps people find jobs in the film and TV industry. These types of websites are very easy to use, and can be done quickly, which is very convenient for the employee, as it saves time when looking for a job. There are lots of competition, when it comes to getting jobs, as most people use this method to get jobs, so there is a lot of websites like this on the internet, so it can get confusing for the employee, when looking for a job, as they might not know what website to go on, when searching for a job. By putting websites online, and offer jobs on the internet, the employer can reach a large audience easy, as there are millions of people that go on the internet, there will be many people that will see the offer, and will be interested in having a job. By having millions of people having access, to seeing your opportunities for jobs, you will get multiple not suitable for a job, so you wont always get the employees that you seek for.
Word Of Mouth
Word of mouth, is basically a job spread around by people, simply through communication. To be able to get a job, you need to be in the film and TV industry, to be able to talk to someone about a job. These can seem very convenient from conversations, and you might even get an opportunity when you are not looking for a job, as an opportunity, can come randomly mid conversations, which can seem very convenient for the employee seeking for a job. Sometimes this can end horribly wrong for some people, as sometimes, if you agree to something but then back out of it, you can get blackballed, which is known as getting a bad reputation, and no one would want to sign you. as other employers, can tell them that you backed out on a deal, and then you wont have anyone giving you a job, and wont be able to have a job that youdesire, such as a camera operator, or a prop maker, because they might think you will back out of their deal as well. People are required to already know the business, to be able to get a job, so if you don't already know the business you wont be able to get a job. By using this method of getting employees, it is free for the employer, and it can be worth it, as you can simply get an amazing working employee, and it wont even cost anything, but sometimes, this method doesn't always reach the right candidates, so you might need to be looking for a while.
Networking
Networking is when you go to a a certain place such as an office or reception and talk to other people about jobs and making links with people within the industry and try to get a job. This is when people go around the TV and film industry, to see what types of jobs are available. This can let the employee get their dream job, such as being a director for a film, and also,at the same time make a friend, which is good for the employee. The employees, need to keep a relationship with the person they negotiated with, if they want a job, since they wouldn't help someone that they don't know get a job. Potential employees will come with some credibility, which is good for the employer, as they know that they can be trusted, and can trust others.
Personal Contact
A personal contract is when you go out, and make contacts with other people, mainly to get a job. Many people in the film and TV industry has used this method to find a job for themselves within the industry. By doing this the employee will be recommended for a wide amount of jobs, such as a prop maker or a makeup artist, which can make chances more likely for them to be employed, the only thing bad about this, is that the employee will need connections with certain people to get a job in the industry. The employer will save money, when using this method to get employees, as it is very cheap to make job advertisement for their company, so people within the TVv and film industry could get an employee to take a job, such as a production manager, and it is also a very simple method to do. The only thing bad for the employer, is that they will only found a certain amount of people that would want a job.
Internal Promotion
Internal Promotion is when people are able to get a higher promotion in a company. In the film and TV industry, people are allowed to be able to, get a job that is lower beneath them, such as a which is a job in the TV and film industry, which can still help them know about the industry. The employee will already be comfortable and used to the working environment that they are in, because they might have already had a job before in the film and TV industryy, and they are more likely to get promotions, since they already know how things work, but because of this reason, they will get other employees being jealous of them, maybe because they did not get the promotion, yet someone else did. By doing this the employer does not need to hire an employee that is completely different to the job, which can be less draining, and they wont have to spend more money. The employers will sometimes have people in the industry might not even have the skills capable to do the job, which is unfortunate.
Trade Fairs
A trade fair is a huge event, where you have to be either in the industry, or be invited to get in, and it is also a craft fair, where people talk about upcoming TV shows and films. The trade fairs allow the employee to be able to see a lot of different companies, such as film companies, that might need camera operators, or editors, in a small amount of time. There is usually a lot of people at these events, which could lead to the employee getting lost in the crowds, and due to there being too many people, and they might be even better at something such as directing, than you and would get the job before g so many people there that might even get a job that you are interested in, you wont be able to see everything in one day, which could be a problem for the employee, as they could be very good at something such as editing, or directing, but wont be able to see a company that requires that. These events are very convenient for employers, because they can be able to find the best and most committed employees, such as they could find someone that is amazing with lighting, simply through this event, and many people would want a job, but at the same time there would be many people, that are not interested in having a job.
