Would love it if you could do similar videos but in different areas of publishing such as editorial/social media marketing/writing etc :D

We hope you enjoyed taking a little look into the life of a publicist with us! Want more? Let us know if you have any suggestions below. Thanks for watching!

Do you offer any remote opportunities?

It's my dream to work at a publishing company one day, preferably Penguin! I'm going to go to university first though

@cheechee6473 4 года назад

Hey! How’s it going?

@BookMachineTV 3 года назад

Surely one of the most exciting areas of publishing to work in!

@shanikapowell6672 5 лет назад

This was really informative. Thank you for making this video! I live in the US and I'm interested in publishing but I'm not sure which aspect I'd like to get into. This video was far more helpful than many of the articles I've used to help me conduct this research. Keep up the good work.

I liked how you helped so many people

@AissetouNGom 7 лет назад

Loved this! Loved seeing Harriet and Clare too. Hope you get loads of amazing applicants :)

@PenguinPlatform 7 лет назад

Yay, happy you like it! It's always nice to get lots of people involved. :)

I think that everything you offer in terms of jobs, internships and work experience is awesome!! It has been difficult to find a company that offers so many opportunities! I would love if you could do similar videos for other areas of publishing because it is an easy way to learn more about the industry. I hope you keep running internships, jobs etc because I will definitely be interested in the future!

I'm really interested in working for your company when I'm older. I'm only 17 so for the moment so I'm planning on doing a GCSE literature course for next year. I've never been given the opportunity so I want to see where I go from there. You should do a literature advice vlog. You have really inspired me for a job in the book world. Hugs xxx

@sabinejane14 3 года назад

Loved this thank you! I’d love to get into this kind of role from marketing and comms 😊

What college degrees/minors would you recommend if you want to be a book publicist?

@theesperanzacompromisebyja9044 3 года назад

Love it!

@LauraDFTBA 7 лет назад

Obviously this is tied in with promoting the scheme, but it would be interesting to see this kind of video about the other stages of getting a book published - editorials, marketing, rights, printing and distribution, the lot.

@jordanhafner9847 7 лет назад

Please post more videos about publishing because I want to learn more about how everything works.

@PenguinPlatform 7 лет назад

Thanks for the suggestion! And do let us know if you have any specific requests for different sections of publishing.

@Autumn1998 7 лет назад

Any advice for authors wanting to publish a book with Penguin someday?

@friendsvslovefans 7 лет назад

I do not have the right to work at UK but I can go through the process to obtain it. Can I still apply?

@ramilomb6142 7 лет назад

Do you have any openings like this in Argentina?

@ninaisanamazingduck 7 лет назад

I am so excited about the scheme, it is just what I was looking for. Do you have any tips about the application process and standing out from the rest of the applicants?

@PenguinPlatform 7 лет назад

The Penguin Random House Careers social accounts are actually sharing lots of great tips! You can check out this link: theschemeblog.tumblr.com/post/158775392392/rosanna. or folllow some of the social links we've put in the description. Good luck!

@davesauthenticlifestyle7129 2 года назад

Awesome, very informative! More of the same please

@jadewainwright7535 7 лет назад

would you be able to do this if you aren't actually 18 yet? I'm 17 and really interested in getting a job in publishing or being able to find work experience in publishing, I just have no clue how to go about it.

@PenguinPlatform 7 лет назад

Hi Jade. We only accept people over the age of 18 on The SCheme. Work Experience is only for over 18s at the moment too, but we've taken the feedback of under 18's who are interested on board!
