### Salaries and demand: Turkey and abroad

The Turkish market. Istanbul is the region's media capital: TV channels, production houses, digital agencies and brand media hire journalists, producers and communication specialists. Digital skills — filming, editing, SMM, analytics — speed up the start. Because ranges are re-indexed annually with the minimum wage, treat any salary figure as valid for its year only.

What raises income: a personal portfolio of publications and videos, digital tools, a third language. A personalised comparison of current salary ranges by city and employer is provided under an agreement with StudyU.
