Career Roadmap
Transcript: Career Roadmap Goals Goals Where do I want to be in one year? Working a steady job Frelancing in audio editing until I find a place I want to work with Get bartending license and first job/gig Planing a trip oversea to Asia with a friend Small trips to other states As I am graduating and have had a student position at Temple University for the past 4 years, I am looking for a new job that will steadily bring in money. Bartending could be my steady job after I get my license but I honestly would rather do this more as a freelancer or with a company that will outsource me like a freelance bartender While doing that I will also be looking into companies and businesses where I could do audio work. I know it's hard to land these big jobs right away so I am most likely going to freelance or start somewhere smaller until I find that steady job in my career A couple of my teachers and colleagues have brought websites to my attention where I could put myself up as a freelancer Work Work Jobs I'm Applying To Jobs I'm Applying To Receptionist - I have the most experience in this area and am applying to any place that is hiring Retail - thinking of applying to Uniqlo and maybe Zara since I like those brands and I have some retail experience Administrative - This is my reach into a different field. I don't have direct experience with these types of jobs but I am confident because of previous experiences I can handle it Bartending - Once I get my license I hope to do this as a freelance just to make extra money and because I think it's an interesting job Companies and Freelancing Companies and Freelancing Going BIG!!

Strategies Strategies Since I do not plan on going to graduate school (unless I need to later on), my biggest obsticle is getting equipment to do the job of an audio editor/producer. A limitation would be financial issues. Equipment, even for low end but quality stuff, can still be really pricy. The same could also be said for when I want to travel. My financial situation plays heavily into this. Something I need to learn is how to become a professional voice actor and how to break into the business. Cost of Equipment - It's standard in the audio industry to at least have a computer able to run the software you need, an interface, a pair of professional grade studio monitors and a microphone Computer:$300-$500 Interface:$150 min. Monitors: $400-$500 Microphone: $$150 min. I have already started getting equipment but it takes time to save up money until I can afford this equipment which could prevent me from doing work in my field. In terms of what I still need to do this is one of the biggest obsticles in the way of my professional career advancement. Professional Professional When it comes to voice acting, one of the things I need to do is get a mentor to help refine me in the art and also help to get jobs, or roles in shows/movies. Although I've taken a voice acting class and watch a couple documentaries on it I still do not know enough to be able to comfortably walk into this career path. The challenge is finding this mentor which is going to require research and time networking. I plan to start with just making baisc connection through teachers and jobs, I'm sure I'll be able to work my way there with that and some research. Professional Part 2 Professional Part 2 So my main limitation with travel is the same as one of my limitation for my professional career, finances. Based on my income and my bills I will have to calculate how much I can save for travel every month. Since travel is really something I want to do I have considered working a second job or doing some type of program where you can get free room and board in return for some labor servies. Travel Travel Initiatives Initiatives No matter what field you're in it's all about connection, who you know and how you can use them to your benefit (as selfish as that sounds). I plan to use the connections I made in school, mainly with professors (two or three in particular), but I've also met a few audio professionals outside of school that
