Previously on "Has anybody done any contract work at the BBC?"
The most important thing to remember when going for an interview at the BBC is to study recent court cases.
The other important thing is to be prepared to shout at random times how much you hate Bush, America, anything related to america, anything related to Bush, America and Blair.
Keep those two in mind and you will get the job without any problems

GIven that the vast majority of Americans are against Bush , it follows being pro American means being against the Bush and administration.

That bigg toothed minger Ester Rantzen told my little borther to pi55 off when he worked there because he was talking on his mobile outside her office.
Quite right too IMO. I hate people shouting into their mobiles when I'm trying to work.

I might be going for any interview at the BBC, as I applied for a 6 month contract role directly with them and not through an agent.
what are they like to work for?
Also whats the pay like? If I go for an interview, and they ask me about rates? How should I handle this!?
Your thoughts appreciated.
thanks,
I should say there is a reasonable chance they might accidentally interview you live on News 24 after mistaking you for someone else.
In all seriousness, I know a couple of people who have worked there - lots of politics ad people trying to protect their own jobs. I think it was Kelvin McKenzie who once said something like the only thing the BBC is good for is 'keeping 25,000 lefties in employment'

That is easy enough. What do you think you are worth? Can you justify that rate? Ask for that amount. If they want to knock you down then you have a decision to make. Take it or walk.
