Resources for Music Industry Job Seekers

Resources for Music Industry Job Seekers

I get a lot of inquiries about job opportunities at Silent Way. There are none available, so don't bother sending a resume. If you are looking for a job or internship, try these resources instead:

My article with a long diatribe about the future of recording studios, broadcasting, and advice for aspiring engineers

One quote from that article:

I advise new recording engineers NOT to limit themselves to music-only projects or spend all their entry-level time in one studio; Work with as many different studios as possible. Audio-for-video (video post production) and commercial studios pay much better than music-only studios. This applies in broadcasting, too. Strike a good balance of work that pays your bills, and work that is creatively fulfilling.

Also consider the Recording Academy's Internship Program (This is the organization that votes for the Grammy Awards). The Academy compensates interns and gives college credit. Internships are open to college students who are currently studying music or a music industry-related major and are preparing for a career in the music/recording industry. If you are interested in the Internship program, see the online application form or call your local chapter office (San Francisco's number is 415-749-0779).
