    Wow, that seems like a really great place to have secured work experience! Magazines are usually really over subscribed, so well done!

    Personally, I reckon you will shadow someone - see what they do etc. You might get to see the different departments and make tea!

    Err, shouldn't you have asked the lovely people at Bliss that?!

    Well done for getting the placement though :thumb:, if you're going for a career in Journalism, then experience at a big magazine at your age will look fantastic on your cv, even if you do just end up making tea all week!

    Being a glorified tea lady is always a risk on work experience thingies while you're at school, but in all probability they'll show you how the whole set up works, who does what, maybe they'll brain storm you for ideas about something they're writing (as someone in the mag's target audience, you'll also be useful to them), or maybe even give you a go at writing an article of your own.

    Good luck, and tell us how it all went on :)

    i wouldve asked bliss but every time i rang the person io was doing it with had left so they'd put me on to someone else and i'd forget.

    im worried ima turn up and they'll be like 'huh?' but i've got my end of the paper work so we'll see i start tomorow so i'll fill you in
