Summer Term Jobs and Internships

Hey guys, as you know we will be finishing for the academic year in April. For all of those wanting jobs and internships here is a list of galleries and schemes which you will hopefully find helpful!!
Good luck with all of your assessed work. Don’t forget that we are always here to help – check out our site on the VLE for our contact information or feel free to comment on these posts.


Jobs and Internships

The best thing we recommend is to get in touch with as many institutions as possible. Send away CV’s, fill out online applications, or ring them; just keep applying. A great way to keep in the know with all the current exhibitions and job vacancies is to join the mailing lists of all the major galleries and follow the links (often at the bottom of the screen) to the ‘job’ section. The most important thing is to keep trying. Don’t be disheartened if you do get rejected a few times. London’s a big city with lots of students looking for jobs so start looking early to avoid disappointment. Here’s some contact information on a few galleries. Good luck!
