Hey everyone,
I am currently doing my masters degree (postgrad) in Communications and I really want to carry on studying for a PhD...there is no other option :) ok heres my problem: all my friends will be having "normal" jobs and working in the industry (media and so on) so they are constantly (to my mind) doing internships, working in the media industry as freelancers, you name it..
I am a bit worried now, thinking: I am doing nothing for my future career..is there anything you should do in order to boost your chances of being accepted as a phd-student? You can't really do an internship in the summer at some uni, can you?
I am working as a tutor for a professor, mostly doing administrative stuff, photcopying, correcting essays..
Thanks for replies :)
