Mr. Parsons:  Right Rebecca.   Now I see that after graduating from University your first job was...

Rebecca:For a local paper in York called the York Herald. Actually, I started with them as an intern in the beginning.  I was really keen on getting some experience in the journalistic world, and this seemed like a good first step.

Mr. Parsons:  Certainly. And after your internship

Rebecca:They seemed impressed,  and offered me a position as a junior local news reporter.  I ended up staying two years there actually.  I was in charge of the sports news section of the newspaper. I  really  enjoyed  it  there,  and  it  really helped me build my skills.

Mr. Parsons:  Yes I see. But you decided to leave them in 2006 right

Rebecca:Yes,  that’s  right.   My  husband  and  I moved to London, and so I managed to find a position with a National newspaper based in London

Mr. Parsons:  The London Weekly right

Rebecca:Yes, in some ways it was a step down from my previous job but it did offer me much better prospects for the future.
