7. Big company/small company

Most large publishing houses are local divisions of multinational corporations, such as Penguin, Random House or McGraw-Hill. Broadly, in a large company (say, 30 or more staff), you’re more likely to:

• Work in one job area, because the company is well resourced – so you might snare a role as one of eight editorial assistants, where you work with, say, the popular science editor with research and reviewing, and don’t have too much to do with other subject areas or job functions

• Get structured opportunity for promotion

• Get average or above-average (for the industry) rate of pay and conditions and well-organised bonus schemes

• Get involved in structured business planning, decisions and practices
