Heyy everyone, This question might seem dumb for most but as a 19yr guy , still don’t know what to do. I wanted to know if there is anyway to find a companies to work with as an « alternant » in visual and audio specialisation ( french term for someone partially working some days in the week while also going to school ). As matter of fact I’ve tried to look for thing like that but don’t know how to contact them or anyway, Does anyone has some tips to give me, would be much appreciated ! And also if there is any alternative to LinkedIn because I’m getting sick of the people on this app being 50yr racist and self centered manager/ceo… that I have to contact :) Much love to everyone thanks for reading this !
Most companies have a website that may list openings and an HR department you can contact to inquire about jobs if not. You need to figure out a way to network and make friends in the industry to have a good shot though, going to industry related conferences is one way to break in socially if you haven’t already make contacts.
Doing independent work and building up your own clients can sometimes also help, but until you can get in (and even after you do), it’s important to keep growing your professional network and make friends with whoever you can however you can. Social media can help if there are enthusiast communities or professional communities, but stuff like Linkedin can be a total shitshow so brace yourself there.
