10 Tips for Finding a Job in Publishing

you're so adorable! I was distracted by your cute accent and your delightfully bouncy hair.

What kind of qualities do you need to work in publishing, because I don’t really want to work in an office job but I would really love to work with books?

hey i have an urgent question because i’m deciding whether or not i should defer fall classes...... i’m looking for advice from anyone in the industry on this: is it looked down upon to take 2 internships at once/ not a good look? i would be transparent with both companies but i’m worried to even ask

Thank you for the video, Sanne! I found your video while Googling ways to find a publishing job. I've been a freelance nonfiction line editor and copyeditor for over five years. (I'm an occasional proofreader.) I'm a lifelong language enthusiast. Finding a full-time position (especially a remote position) in trade publishing has been quite challenging. I'm concerned about not having a relevant degree (my degree is in an unrelated field) since publishers often require it. I'd love to find a way to bypass that requirement.

Thank you Madam for an energetic explanation on publishing procedures and how to enter the publication world. Of course, there are a lot of procedures to know about the issues of the publication. Above all, 10 Tips for those who are likely to enter publication marketing and how to succeed in it. Really indeed to benefit the publishing community in the world.

I'm still in high school but this is sooo helpful I love daydreaming about my future job 💗💗💗

Is it possible to take a side step into publishing? I currently work in education and wonder if it's possible to start in publishing without starting at an entry level job.

Thank u.. Do u hv recommendation for reputable agent for picture books (Fiction genre)?

Hi! I discover your channel recently and I love it!. And I want to ask you, Do you know what is the content in the reader informe?. Saludos! 💗

9 months? Wow, you were sooo lucky! I have been trying for 4 years now, I have done copywriting course, work placement as editorial assistant, I have my own blog. Still nothing. I started going to events, I follow people on LinkedIn. Aaannddd guess what? Yep, that's correct - still nada. Ran out of ideas.

Great video! Thanks for the information and advice :)

Thanks for sharing. This will really help me.

I know this has nothing to do with the video, but I love the Florence Welch vibe you emanate here <3

So many great tips that are applicable to many different career fields!

Hi, very informative. Thank you and have a nice day

I know that this is completely off-topic but I'm travelling to London in a few days. My friends and I are going book shopping and I was wondering if you had a bookshop suggestion. I saw your book crawl video and your London bookshop faves video, but you didn't specify if you preferred one of the shops over the others or if one had a lot of YA and fantasy/sci-fi (which is what we’re mainly looking for).
Also, I love you videos and the current frequency of them! Thank you for producing such good content :)

Would love to see more videos with this type of content!

I got like 4 books I started n having trouble finishing..but nothing relevant ..you're so cute n love the accent

I'm glad you made this video! I'm sure people will find this helpful. When I started in publishing in Indonesia 3 years I ago, I literally had no idea of what I should be doing, but I made it. I'd love to try out publishing industry in other country.

This is super helpful Sanne, thank you!

Just wanted to put this out there - I work in marketing at HarperCollins and I'm always happy to chat about publishing with anyone looking to get their foot in the door! Loved this video Sanne.

Thank you! This is so helpful (:

Do you have any tips for getting a job at a bookstore? I've been trying for some months with no luck. :(

je haar zit echt goed hier!!

Thanks for the video. I will try to use them in Brazilian Publishing Industry. Wish me luck!

A huge thank you for all these publishing videos! Super helpful. 🤩☺️

Great video! Thanks for the tips. Please could you could do a video about the different departments and what each involves?

Thank you.

Thank you for those tips, I am definitely doing all of these, and looking forward to my second job in trade in LND!

This is so useful! I hope to get a job in publishing someday, although I’m not quite sure in which department.
