Each job has its own challenges and shortcomings, no exception as a journalist. However, behind all the shortcomings, there are also many benefits that can be enjoyed from living the profession as a journalist. For those of you who are interested in becoming a journalist, let's look at some of the following benefits.
- Watch concerts or free movies.

The benefits that you will often feel when you become a journalist, especially feature journalists are the opportunity to watch band concerts or favorite music for free. How can? Typically, the organizers will cooperate with some media for the benefit of the publication of the event. In return they will give away some free concert tickets for the journalist to come and cover the whole show. Well, if you have this way you can work at once enjoy the music concert, right?
In addition, journalists also have the opportunity to watch the premiere of a movie for free long before the film aired for the general public. So, while other people are waiting for the presence of a movie, we already know in advance the story in the movie. Again, we have to provide coverage about the film which is usually a movie review that has been witnessed.
- Eat well.

As long as you become a journalist, you do not have to be afraid of hunger, because almost certainly you will enjoy the various delicious dishes found during the coverage of an event that has been prepared by the organizer, especially if you attend an invitation event held during lunch or dinner night. Especially if you are a journalist or culinary journalist, well surely your days are filled with a wide range of delicious dishes offered by a wide range of top restaurants and hotels. Well, you can enjoy it as much. So, prepare the stomach and do not forget also to keep up with diligent exercise, yes!
- Can know new things faster than others

The next advantage is to be able to know the latest and warmest information faster than others, including the gossip of artists, officials, and other important people gained from other fellow journalists.
- Free overseas travel

Not only the streets plus work out of town, you also have the opportunity to go abroad for free and even the cost of living during the duty coverage in a country was already guaranteed. In this way, you can get to know the culture of other countries without having to pay personal expenses. In fact, you also have the opportunity to stay in 5 star hotels with extra services like socialites. But of course you have to keep fulfilling your duties as a journalist, that is making news about the event that you are covering there. Not bad, you can visit many new countries that have never been visited before, deh!
- Have a wide network of friends.

One thing you should keep in mind is that having a profession as a journalist makes you have a very broad network of friends, ranging from lower middle to upper class as well as colleagues from other media. This will certainly make it easier for you to do things, including one when looking for a new job. Not infrequently also from the profession as a journalist you can get a lot of side jobs to increase pocket money. Make the most of it, yes!
- The opportunity to meet artists, ministers, and other important people

In addition to a vast network of friends, you also have the opportunity to meet with idol artists, ministers and even presidents if you work as a journalist. This is because the work environment that requires you to cover the various things that exist in this country ranging from national news, entertainment, health, culinary, and much more. Initially it is very fun to meet with the idol or important person, but over time you will feel normal because it was used to meet. Well, anyway not everyone has an opportunity like this, you know!
- Extensive career opportunities

Career opportunity to be a journalist is wide enough, this is considering the number of media (both print and online) in Indonesia that can be cultivated. In fact, you can also cultivate other careers (which is certainly still in the realm of journalists) such as a freelance writer, social media, and various other creative jobs.
