MAJOR TO JOB
Publishing is an apprenticeship industry, meaning that much of what a publishing professional needs to know will be learned on the job. Often, industry knowledge learned in one department is useful throughout the publishing house—allowing the opportunity to move between departments. But where to start? Put together with the help of several human resource experts, this guide to matching major with the appropriate publishing departments is a great way to determine your first steps.
