The course set me up brilliantly for my job at Channel 4
The MA Broadcast course at Sheffield set me up brilliantly for my job at Channel 4.
I particularly enjoyed the newsdays, as they introduced me to being in a pressurised but exciting newsroom environment, making sure that I was more than ready for my placements and work beyond the course.
Being encouraged to use social media as part of our news output was also especially valuable, as many employers are now looking for graduates who have a strong digital skillset as news coverage continues to evolve.
Freddy recently won a BJTC award for work that he produced during his time at Sheffield - read more about his win here.
