One thing I have been struggling with is convincing employers that I can do the job of a manager because I don't have any managerial experience. It's hard because not only do I know I can do the job... but I know I can do an amazing job at it. So how do you convince someone that you can be amazing when you don't fit their "desired resume"?? The answer... I have no idea.
That's my biggest problem right now... I'm trying to go in a different direction, leaving TV behind for a job on "the other side." I get the inner workings of a newsroom so you would think I would be a logical choice, but companies want someone who has worked in PR for 10 years or they are hiring unpaid internships... neither of which is really desirable.
I really wish I had more advice to give on this... today I had a phone interview at a TV station, I think it went ok... but I know they want someone with experience as a manager... which I don't have... so we'll see how it goes.
