I was an A&R guy for a major record label between 2001-2004. We broke several new artists and produced a handful of platinum-selling records during my tenure, but we also experienced the beginning of the industry’s downfall. Many jobs lost, many artists dropped — what was once an extremely fun and creative profession became far less glamorous, virtually overnight.

So I want to be an assistant (admin) in this business. That's it. No secret wish to entertain. What do you think is the best route to take?
