"I was so excited to be accepted on the first Rising Talent scheme run by The Crewing Company in 2022. The Crewing Company has truly helped to kickstart my media career through gaining vital industry experience and supporting me in building my network, which in this industry is our net worth. This program is a great opportunity for aspiring media professionals who are wanting to break into the industry and make their mark.
From the outset, The Crewing Company were committed to nurturing creativity and fostering professional growth, through providing us with industry mentors and useful workshops. One of my favourite workshops was the networking workshop delivered by Screenshkills, teaching us how to navigate the often overwhelming but essential task of networking. The scheme's dedication to finding new entrants work placements is evident, Laura and the team were always available to help, provide guidance and point us in the direction of new industry opportunities.
Not only was the Rising Talent scheme useful for my career, but I have also made some really great friends and developed a great relationship with The Crewing Company."
