Why
was the guide created?
The creative industry can often feel exclusive and isolating, especially when you’re just starting out or switching careers. This guide aims to provide a starting point for those looking for new jobs or opportunities, as well as shine a light on the different creative career paths that are out there and inspire you to find a job that you’re passionate about.
How
was the guide created?
This guide is a collaboration between The Gallyry and I LIKE NETWORKING, a mentoring and networking platform for women and non-binary people in the creative industries. Bringing I LIKE NETWORKING’s industry knowledge and network together with the editorial style of The Gallyry, the idea for the careers guide was born. This guide then came to life with the contributions of professionals who shared their wisdom, as well as the brilliant Malini Rao who designed such a fantastic resource.
