My advice is to go the independent route. Even if your ultimate goal is to get signed to a record label, pursuing independent means can help you get on record labels' radar, or at least make you more appealing as an artist. You'll at least have to write and record a few good songs as a demo if you want to get signed to a record deal. Do open mic shows, enter on & offline singing contests, network on Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, etc. In general, if you grind hard enough, someone will eventually take notice.
When looking for a record deal or an opportunity to get signed to a to a record label, start by making a three to four song demo of your BEST material. Focus on is making the music in your demo unique. Too many artists try to record a song that is almost identical to a particular song they've heard on the radio. When it comes to record deals, this just doesn't work. Find out to whom (a name of a person) you should send your demo. Don't send it to the name of the company, as it might end up in the wrong hands. Put your best tracks first. If your worst track is first on the CD, they will just throw it out without looking into it. Be persistent. Don't just send it to them and wait, call them up and ask the specific person you sent your demo to how he/she liked it. Phantom City Studio is a good place to send your demo. Be professional. You'll be seen as a mature individual. Have some unbiased consumers listen to your songs to get a true assessment of the quality of your music, prior to submitting your songs for deal consideration. Research in advance to insure that the record labels and A&R's you are trying to work with are actively looking to promote the specific style of music you create. This can help save everyone involved a lot of time in the long run, help you minimize your CD production costs, and better insure your music gets heard. Have your friends or anyone that you feel has the ear for quality music give you advice or show you your mistakes and how to fix them. Good luck!
WOW-- those are two COMPLEtely different questions!! One, of course, has nothing to do with the other. To 'get a job', you have to have knowledge, or display an ability to understand what goes on at a studio, then apply yourself. Most people now study Recording Techniques at a music or recording school, then apply to studios.
Of course, being a secretary/receptionist is also a 'job in a studio', so , many options.
ALmost 'No One' "gets a record Deal" anymore. Those days are over.

The distributers are the middlemen between the record labels and the retail outlets. A poor distribution deal gets your CD onto store shelves that no one goes to. A good deal will put your CD on shelves of popular chains.

You do not need to generally report an expunged record on your job application. It is erased as far as the court is concerned and no one should have access to it.
One can purchase a record cabinet for a really great deal on eBay. Furniture stores also have the record cabinet available for sale like IKEA and Urban Outfitters.
