Audio Production

Notes from the Field: First Job

April 26, 2010 I graduated from the Audio production program this past fall 2009. Since graduation I have had a few short term projects where I have been able to use the skills I obtained through training at CDIA. I have been conducting a job search in addition to networking with organizations and people that could be in a position to assist me. I also worked with the Career Services department at CDIA. Through the efforts of my counselor, Bruce Jaranian, I became aware of a position in Waltham, MA for an video/audio editor. Bruce and I worked on a cover letter, made some adjustments to my resume to more closely align my skill sets to the position and soon after applying for the position I had a phone screening followed shortly by a personal interview. This position represents a start in the media industry for me. The experience will allow me to grow, meet new people, learn and enhance my skills. Thanks to my training at CDIA and the support of the career services department (specifically Maureen and Bruce), I have a job that I am enjoying and thats what counts!
