They could be creating content, researching stories and locations or contacting contributors. At other times they might be planning, checking copyright and organising programme logistics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/careerssearch.bbc.co.uk\/jobs\/job\/Journalism-Trainee-Scheme\/26958\">journalism trainees<\/a><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">, also for those aged 18 and over, will have a passion for storytelling and will be trained both on the job and by the BBC Academy to bring stories to life for BBC audiences on TV, radio, online and social media. They have places in their newsrooms for English and Gaelic speakers, and there are opportunities, too, in sports news.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">BBC Scotland recognises that applying for these roles can be daunting and that many people might be put off by the process. To help people along the way, they are hosting an information evening about these vacancies at their headquarters in Glasgow\u2019s Pacific Quay on Wednesday 21st March, from 6pm.\u00a0 Students will have the opportunity to meet with current trainees and apprentices, plus those who have passed through the schemes in previous years. There will also be staff there to talk about their jobs at BBC Scotland and to give advice about the application process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">Details are available on their webpage which has details of the information event:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/careerssearch.bbc.co.uk\/jobs\/job\/BBC-Apprenticeship-and-Journalism-Trainee-Discovery-Evening-Wednesday-21st-March\/26971\">https:\/\/careerssearch.bbc.co.uk\/jobs\/job\/BBC-Apprenticeship-and-Journalism-Trainee-Discovery-Evening-Wednesday-21st-March\/26971<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">There is also a facility on that page for people to apply to come along to the event.
