  22. Aaron Chartier You don't have to finish your journalism studies and get a diploma to work as a journalist -- particularly abroad.  Diplomas and professional certifications, licenses, do not export.  Not for doctors, nurses, electricians, accountants, engineers, et c.  You can obtain an equivalency but it still isn't accepted -- you have to learn the new language, the legal system, the administration, the methods, and obtain further certification in the new country.  You can legally be an unpaid intern abroad for awhile.  In some places.  If you're a teacher in one country, okay, but it doesn't transfer (easily) to another country.  (I know -- I was a registered representative in the USA -- I could work in European and Asian "Wall Street" but wasn't registered -- I've been a visiting professor at university level in Europe, et c.  I had full citizenship in the new country, however, and was capable in the new language, had a good CV in their language, et c.)  I did fine studying journalism formally but couldn't see why I ought to finish for the diploma, since I was already working, and I really didn't get much out of the classes.  I got honors grades, but so what?  So, I started in the USA at age 18, 19.  In order for me to work in Europe, I can now, because I am a full EU citizen.  My pay level in France will be limited, however, by my level of FRENCH education.  That is how France works.  You need a two-year diploma here to be a real restaurant worker, waiter, day care employee, et c.  They do find it good if you have experience elsewhere -- very good -- but you're not fully up to speed until THEY say so.  If you'd like to hear me on Radio France from '13, the clip is up on Dailymotion under LisaFalour, from about February or March of '13.  I decided to post that one -- it was funny, I thought, and France voted it the program they'd like to hear rebroadcast out of all the others on Radio France for Christmas in '13.  It's in French, but that's me.  I insist, you do not need a diploma to be a journalist, to be affiliated with a wire service, to freelance, et c.  You do need a work permit in order to do serious, declared work.
