The editor-in-chief of film and entertainment magazine, Empire, has put a call-out on Twitter for budding young journalists to sign up for a mentorship scheme, in order to gain work experience.
WORK EXPERIENCE
Terri White tweeted about the scheme last week, 19 October, explaining that eight Empire and Pilot TV journalists had signed up to the scheme and are looking for young journalists to mentor.

It is hoped that the mentorship scheme will enable young journalists from all backgrounds to gain skills and get feedback from established professionals working in magazine journalism.
