Cause nobody, and I mean nobody is gonna just hire you

You need experience and friends

If you had friends you wouldn't be asking

So ehat

Go to the lame fucking club and gofer

Set shit up

Go to a theatre and ask if they need help

What skills

Audio engineering

Or sound engineering

If you go to shittier venues they may take you

You run events and mix sounds

Don't be a lil bitch

Cause that's what you see doing

And I am speaking from experience, I have known a few guys in the field

@Gabri yeah just ask them what equipment they use act like you know what your doing then look up tutorials on the system

Not finishing school yet? Great you got even more time to network. Start now! Build a portfolio, start working.
No friends... that is literally what the clubs are for. Go there, buy a beer for the guys and start asking to talk shop.
Work on those skills that you will be hired for. Start practicing and learning. If you can't do shit you better have just started this semester. In which case you better be learning.

If you dont like the advice being given, you really need to change fields.

Great

He's right it is totally a connection based industry

And you think a recording studio is going to hire some kid that hasn't done shit?

do everything we are saying. Work on that portfolio!

A good portfolio is gonna get you hired over your degree.

Then go to a fucking club

Sound is sound

Or are you planning to be a foli artist

Were being harsh on you because we are being honest. This is not a field that you can sit back and relax in.

Go to a club, do for a band

Stupid shit like that. Again I know people I'm the field

That's how they got in

Speak to the backstage guys at concerts and ask to help out

Show you know how to rig the tech

They will give you a chance

What Crappy is saying.. is intern it up.

Better yet, call a company that does it and ask if your degree would get you a job with no experience

^^

And pretty much @Kragt but you have an advantage cause being a gofer sucks

So offer to do it and ask to do more

Chat to the tech on the board

I pointed him to the TFM vid about that, but I know he hasn't had time yet.
But you start at the job you want and work backwards from the requirements.
You dont start at the degree and ask what can I do with this? You start at the job and say what do I need to do to get this?

Shit like that is your way. A degree is great but in this case it's the cherry, not the ice-cream
