Graduate Production Placements
So you want to get into TV, video, interactive media or events production? And you think you can prove you’ve got the potential to be an absolutely outstanding cameraman, editor, programmer, writer, director or producer? Well if you've answered a BIG YES to both, then you might be interested in our Graduate Production Placements.
Finding a job in the media these days is a daunting task. Even most media graduates fail to find any long-term opportunities - so a placement at 2020 is an ideal introduction to the media industry. You never know, it might even lead to a permanent position with 2020 in either London or Leicester.
Our focus is on delivering top-end creative campaigns to our corporate clients, so as well as your creative or technical expertise, we’ll also be looking at your communication skills and any experience you have of working with clients and keeping projects on-time and on-budget.
