Diane Hobbs is HR & Office Manager at Bloomsbury Publishing Oxford Office. We discussed many topics such as: the importance of internships and work experience; entering the publishing industry later in your career; how to get transferable skills in other industries or in your free time; and how to keep learning and growing. This is the last interview of Season 1 of Publishing Insight, I asked listeners to submit their own questions with the hashtag #AskPublishingInsight and Diane answered those as well. So, thank you very much to the people who sent me their questions! I hope this episode will be useful to clarify your doubts.
