I need a new job in magazines and one of the biggest magazine companies has a job at a parenting magazine.
I'm not into parenting and I'm not a parent. Should i still apply when i get my foot in the door at a big magazine company?Would you work for a parenting magazine if you weren't into kids?
Some jobs at a parenting magazine I think i think you can get away with doing without having any interest in kids, but as an editorial asst., I think you need to have a sincere, vested interest in the subject matter.
On the other hand, in today's economy, a job is a job, and heck, working there might ratchet up your enthusiasm about kids, right?
The bottom line is this: can you afford to pass this job up and look for another one?Would you work for a parenting magazine if you weren't into kids?
I think you have to be close to a baby, like close family, before you get an appreciation of them. The answer to your question lies in what you want to do for the magazine. Design, editing, and in office jobs will be fine. If you want to do reporting or photography you might need a little more enthusiasm.
