Job hunting, it’s a stressful time. Whether you are leaving University and looking for your first full time job or you are looking to move careers, everyone goes through the same experience; Preparation, Applications and Interviews.

The new musical everybody’s talking about, this fun, exciting, moving story follows a young boy from Sheffield who has the ambition to be a drag queen and ultimately wants to wear a dress to his school prom. 

Mental health is an increasing issue worldwide, amongst both young and older generations. 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health problem each year. I believe more help is needed for people dealing with mental health issues, especially now it’s becoming an increasing problem for a large portion of our population. What are we doing to support these people and how can the arts industry help?

My review of King Lear at the Minerva Theatre, Chichester

A career in the arts is challenging, hard work and really rewarding. Work placements and training opportunities are a great way to test out your desired career, meet people in the industry and develop your skills and experience.

University is great. Three years of all-nighters, existential crises, ever-looming deadlined, never-ending stress and excessive drinking. Survive that and you come out with a degree and thousands upon thousands of pounds of debt. Compelling, right?

With jobs asking for experience we can't get and skills we can't afford, how are we to find employment?

Voice contributor Luke completed his Gold Arts Award as part of his apprenticeship, and is now a full time employee of Unit Twenty Three.

Not going to lie – being an apprentice is hard, especially if you've only just started out. BUT, if you are determined and persistent like me, then you'll do just fine. I'm currently starting my Gold Arts Award with Unit Twenty Three as the Projects Assistant, and so far it's going pretty well. So I'm going to provide some information on what it's like to be a new apprentice. Don't worry, you'll be fine. Trust me!
