Broadcasting Tips

disclaimer:� I am not claiming to be an expert on this.� I am just telling you things that have worked for me and others when getting into the broadcasting industry.

1. First off, getting into broadcasting means you have to dedicated, love and plan to push yourself to the limits to get into broadcasting and to stay in the business.

2. You have to use your creativity.� It will make you excell in your job and put you in contention for other positions.

3. Little things count.� After a interview send a express mail thank you, it works.� Send your contacts holiday cards etc...shows that you care.� Use respect always.�

4. Internships are great.� You get great experience, meet people in the business and maybe that will be your first or second job in the business.� I interned at Fox 45 two years ago and through what i learned while i was gone and people I knew in the station I got the job.

5. Its first who you know, then after you get the job what you know.

6. Always learn more than one job.� Small market stations are always downsizing or changing format sometimes without letting their employees knowing.

7.� Make sure that your significant other or your friends know the dedication that this business needs.� You might work long days, stressful days, weird shifts, etc...much like a normal job, but in a lot of ways different.
