What qualifications do you need to be an editor of a literary magazine? Or comic magazines, what qualifications or conditions do you need? One, two or a junior college?

There are two ways to enter the literary works distribution or magazine editing industry.

The first way is that you are an author and have written many famous books, and you have changed from an ordinary literature lover to a writer with some fame. Then when you want to apply for a related literary magazine, those magazines or publishing societies will measure your value according to your professionalism and apply for you as an editor. Of course, education is still very important, but it is lower than other ways.

The second way is that you are just a college graduate with a bachelor's degree, majoring in Chinese language and literature, publishing and editing, news communication and so on. You like this, too, and you have some publishing and editing experience, so some unknown magazines or publishing clubs consider hiring you. If you want to enter a big magazine or a well-known publishing house, then either you have a family background or you are highly educated and very professional. Then there may still be a chance.

As for the salary you asked, the salary of an ordinary editor in such a position will not be very high. If you are in a first-tier city, your income is 5000-6000 (whether there is gray income depends on your ability), and if you are in a second-tier or third-tier city, it is even lower. Second-tier cities are around 3000-4000, and third-tier cities do not exceed 1000. In addition, if the cultural industry wants to find a job, it must be in first-tier cities, and the development of cultural industries is relatively backward in second-and third-tier cities. I have a sister who works as an executive editor in a second-tier city. She found it difficult to recruit people, either inexperienced or unqualified at all. She's crazy, too.

My advice to you is that young people should not be idealistic. When you are employed, you can find something you like to do, but don't set the employment path too narrow. What you have to do is to get close to your goal step by step, instead of giving up the opportunity to get close to this goal in pursuit of one step, and you will eventually achieve nothing and regret it for life.
