I'm about to start applying for production/direction jobs in the film industry in Hollywood. Is it difficult and what do I need on my job history and education to get one?

You don't really need anything, almost everything that there is to be learned is on "on the job."
Start as a PA and work up. I don't think it'll be too hard, there is a LOT of work in Hollywood -- be open to tv as well as film or even corporate gigs. The trick is to keep busy and keep working.
You'll do fine if you love it.

It depends on what you wanna do. You need a TV production class on your resume but other than that i dont know what u need. U can probably start as an intern with a few things on your resume but nothing big until you take the better classes. Once you do, just work your way up the filming ladder to the spot you want. Good luck!

well yes it is difficult.. you will find that those types of jobs are given within the circles of hollywood......
You will need experience and possibly educated in some form of theatre/movie making work.
But too be honest the chances of getting a job in hollywood are probably less than 1 in 100. sorry to dissapoint.. i would seriously consider looking for other work...

Extremely difficult. You first need the Green Card to work in the states, next you need to be 6 feet tall with gorgeous hair and legs and about 20. You need an agent who probably won't even consider you unless you have loads of jobs on your CV, even an Olivier Award won't make any difference if you don't fit other criteria.
