I'm an English student, studying in Bloomsbury, London, and I've always been drawn to the creative world — but working out how to actually get a foot in the door felt far more complicated than it should be.
I started Bloomsbury Pulse because I couldn't find the thing I needed: one place with the entry-level creative roles actually worth applying for, and some honest help on how it all works. So I built it.
Since then, some wonderful fellow students have come on board to help me run it. Together we dig through job boards, community boards, socials and company pages so you don't have to — and we keep it free for everyone.
Like everyone else, I'm figuring life out as I go. This is just the bit I can help with.
Bloomsbury Pulse now lives on Substack. Subscribe free for advice, interviews and features whenever we publish, or go paid (£5 a month) for a weekly email with every opportunity we post.
Our Substack features are edited by Elena, our features editor. If you'd like to write a piece or run an editorial with us, contact her via Substack.
It costs around £50 a month to run the platform. Your support is hugely appreciated as we keep Bloomsbury Pulse free for all — and open to every young person trying to break into creative careers.
