Some fantastic work experience opportunities are up for grabs working with NBC Universal. These are 6 month paid internships that will allow you to really get your foot in the door working for a massive international media conglomerate. Please note that it doesn’t appear that there is a lot of technical production involved, so it wouldn’t be ideal for people wanting to launch a career in directing or cinematography (apart from the Matchbox Internship which may offer some scope for this).

They have an info day coming up about NBC that’s definitely worth checking out, but you need to make sure that you RSVP for this. I’ve included it as a screenshot of a PDF below for your convenience.
