The following is a guest post by Best Job Ever committee member Brian Coulter.
This year has just flown by! We in SLC have been planning Best Job Ever since September, and it’s hard to believe that the big day is this close. Though BJE is just a year old, we are really hoping to turn the event into something that the Curb College can build itself around. It’s a young idea, but it has the potential to become something more than just a conference; BJE could become a Belmont tradition. If you were not lucky enough to make it to the event last year, let me tell you a little more about what we are trying to do.
First and foremost, the thing you need to know is that BJE is not just another Insider’s View or Belmont lecture. As students, we knew that we wanted to offer something different, something truly relatable and personable. This is why we’ve decided to limit the attendance at BJE. In larger groups it is easy to blend in with your peers and surrender to insecurities. At BJE, we keep the panels and workshops to small groups. This way the professionals in the panels are able to learn your name and really get to know you. In our opinion, getting to personally know a professional is a huge advantage, especially in as small and competitive an industry as music.
