Magazine Journalist.

Being a magazine journalist is in ways more laid back than say working for a newspaper as depending on the type of magazine you work at, in most cases you'll be writing about fashion and low key stories. To succeed in this kind of job you need a variety of skills, the main being: creativity, persistence, confidence, attention to detail, decisiveness, organisation skills and of course outstanding writing skills. Magazine journalists are everywhere and there's a lot of competition as there as tons of magazines in the same category that compete with each other. Most journalists that go on to work at magazines have usually worked at a student newspaper/magazine before hand. Salaries in this proffesion vary, smaller magazine pay around £15,000 where as the bigger magazine pay usually around £25,000 - £40,000. Obviously the bigger the magazine, the higher the pay.
