Suzy’s top interview tips:
*Prepare, prepare, prepare. Watch programmes made by the company and talk with enthusiasm about why you’d like to work there. Share any relevant skills, knowledge or experience if you’re being interviewed for a specific role.
*Bring your whole self to the interview. If you’ve not worked in TV yet, have you had any jobs that you could talk about where you’ve had to be responsible, work in a team and develop people skills? These are all very relevant to a job in TV.

Natalie’s top interview tips:
First impressions count. Be prompt, look engaged and bring a positive energy to the interview . So much about working in TV is based on how you connect with people and building strong relationships .

She has also produced for BBC, Netflix and Discovery productions.

As Senior Talent Manager she is responsible for finding the best editorial off-screen talent at all levels, across much of Raw’s un-scripted output, and is committed to championing people from underrepresented groups and women working in TV, both at Raw and externally.

Vikki’s top interview tips:
Ask questions; If you already have experience of working in TV ask about the structure, style and logistics of how the programme is made and anything you think you would need to be aware of, in your role. Always respond truthfully; don’t exaggerate your experience or skill set, but instead focus on your strengths and how they could be an asset to the production.
