One of the biggest hindrances I'm going to face is not having any real newsroom experience in the last decade. I'm willing to bet I can outwrite anybody else up for the job, though.
No real experience means very little. I'd never worked at a helpdesk before I started working at the one I'm at now, and I was the best within a month ;)
Same goes for when I worked retail. Experience helps, but isn't always necessary.
