About The Media Career Programme
Members join weekly live Q&A sessions for personalised guidance and a community where job openings that are not advertised get shared.[1] The listing presents a three-week system for securing job offers as the core of the programme.[1]
A YouTube channel tied to the programme targets people looking for roles in the media and creative industries, and its host, a former TV producer and Head of Television, presents the programme as a packaging of that experience.[2] Media Meerkat, the recruitment agency behind the programme's website, supplies talent to the production and creative industry.[3] Its CEO, Cheryl Kingston, set it up after 20 years as a producer, director, journalist and Head of Television.[3] The agency makes permanent and freelance placements for TV production, post production and the creative, agency and advertising sector, and gives advice free of charge.[3][4][5]
