: Re: How does one break into journalism? Let's say I have no relevant degree or experience and am a recent graduate. What steps can I take to break into the industry?
Start small. Many small newspapers are hungry for original articles and don't get enough coverage.
Report on whatever isn't being covered, even if it doesn't seem interesting to you. Once you become a regular, you're more likely to get better assignments or requests.
Start as a stringer, or remote reporter that can cover stories the paid staff can't.
Do it all- report, take photos, gather quotes and contacts.
Keep consistent and write as much as possible. Most editors I've worked with care little about degrees and want to look at previous pieces before hiring a new reporter.
