This AvA LIVE session is a crash course in how students actually break into entertainment, straight from the people who hire, mentor, and represent talent.
We’ll cover things like: how to get your foot in the door, what makes someone stand out during internships, how to build real relationships before you have a job, and how to figure out which lane of the industry (agency, studio, production, music, etc.) is right for you.
You’ll get tactical advice, from resume and interview tips to the biggest mistakes young people make when trying to network. Plus insider breakdowns of how the industry is changing and what early-career professionals need to do to keep up.
