One for the lads...

I've just received a 'Response Source' email this afternoon and thought this might appeal to any prospective journalists out there wanting to get some work experience - however I feel it's a bit more male orientated, you'll see why.

MEDIA OUTLET: Loaded (review product request)
MEDIA TYPE: Consumer Press
JOURNALIST: Jeff Maysh (staff)
DEADLINE: 10-August-2009 17:00

QUERY: Our work experience person, Terence, was due to start this morning but didn't show up (no phone call, no email!). But what was one boy's premature end to a glistening career in journalism could be another's glorious opportunity...for we have a vacancy for two weeks work on the intern desk of one of the world's drunkest, sorry, most amazing men's magazines.

If you know someone who is 18+, not creepy, keen-as-mustard with a genuine interest in magazines, drop me a line. jeff_maysh@ipcmedia.com. Send two lines on your background and why you'd like 2 weeks (starting from yesterday) at Loaded! You'll be doing the usual stuff: research, a bit of tea, but the best workies get to go on saucy shoots and down our local pub.

Expenses paid.

Hmmm now why would I think guys would prefer to do such a placement??
