Breaking through in Jakarta: a question about career preparation?


Travel Info
Please don't answer if you do not know Jakarta.

I'm new to Jakarta, 22, female, spent 1/3 of my life studying in the West, haven't finished college. I speak 3 languages fluently. I'm good at marketing, promoting, presenting, speaking on behalf of someone, translating, writing, and giving insight. After 9 cities/4 continents, I'm adaptable, have a good understanding on world cultures, and basic but broad awareness of world history.

In a few months I want to start working as an interpreter, journalist, makeup artist, or TV presenter, and in the meantime I want to prepare for all 3 until I see which door is open and which are closing. What'd be required of me so that I can join a good, growing, dynamic company and start at 3-4 juta/month? I haven't graduated and am currently not in school, what can I do? Where can I get intensive certified prep lessons for interpreting, journalism, TV/stage makeup, and broadcasting?

Travel Tips
First, I think you should enroll in a reputable broadcasting school in Jakarta... Learn the tricks of the trade... Establish connections... Then eventually get a job the job that you desire.

Get in touch with Jakarta Broadcasting School. Here's the email address.

Other Travel Tips
They require someone with experience for TV presenter. I know some TV presenters come from Radio background, especially for news anchor.
It's really difficult to get a job in TV nowadays. A few months ago TransTV must conduct the test in Gelora Stadium to accomodate more than 80,000 applicants. And they have only about 50 positions available.
My suggestion is you start with Radio station first and then you can build your network and experiences in journalist.
KISS FM is one of radio station in Jakarta that broadcast in english. You can apply as presenter-in-trainee to that Radio.

Good luck with your career hunting.
