Interning at Warner Music Group?

[mrperson13]

I may have an oppurtunity to do this next summer...good idea? I'm a junior in college minoring in music industry, and although I realize a career in the business isn't exactly the most realistic, I would love to pursue it if possible.
Its obviously unpaid, but I'd be only be doing it twice a week while doing another job. The alternative is that I would continue my current job pretty much full time. Would the experience/ possibleconnections be worth it? Has anyone here interned with them before, if so what was your experience like?

Go for it, I'm sure the connections will be well worth it. It's unrealistic if you pass up opportunities like this, yeah, but if you take advantage of them it could be a different story.

[Wait_For_It]

Go for it.

[SincerelyMe]

Do it. Definitely.

I interned at EMI Music. Looks good on my resume but they didn't let me do anything good.

Alright cool, I was already leaning pretty heavily towards doing it but just wanted some feedback. Fake Empire, would you say overall it was a positive experience?

Not really, honestly. haha I'm sorry. It'll probably be different at Warner.

I would absolutely jump at the chance to do something like this, so yeah, go for it.

Me too. I think being inside a major label would be way interesting.

Go forth and network.
