Work experience
Within the museums and heritage sector pre-entry work experience is highly valued. Look for volunteering or work experience opportunities within the area in which you're interested. For example, if you'd like a career in curatorship, try to get experience working with museum collections.
Use any opportunities to build up a network of contacts as well as provide the skills required for your chosen job.
