“Seeing the representation of individuals of color left me more determined to pursue a career in media. What makes IRTS truly unique is the intimate and supportive atmosphere it cultivates. Regardless of one’s level of experience, the sense of welcome and approachability is pervasive.” Fin Tran (2023 Attendee)“Day 1 was full of incredible panelists. I felt like the discussions covered a wide range of topics, and I appreciated the representation of women on the panels. On Day 2 every recruiter I talked to was kind and helpful.” Oona Mozelle (2023 Attendee) |
