Scoop

Dabbling in news was beyond my wildest dreams. Now the CD website gave me a chance. Ever since my encounter with the magazine, I’d set my goal as being an editor. It took me half a year to find a similar position, but I still can’t make up my mind. 3 yrs is a turning point. It’s impossible to transfer to another industry and I don’t want my 1.5 yrs at DJ to be in vain. I know I like to work on words, but China’s politics is not my interest. What’s life like in a state media? Can I survive the 2 month’s trial period? And the shift, the monthly review… Everything is unknown. I’m wondering if they gave me the offer because of Dow Jones + Beiwai, or my performance.

People working in the media seem to be in awe of Dow Jones. So am I, to the unfamiliar part, and so was I because I knew the truth.
