Topic: What happens if I showed up to my local radio broadcasting headquarters...

Catherine !ttGirlsPl2 started this discussion 7 years ago #78,529

...and asked if they were hiring for any positions then if they say no ask them if they take voluteers for any positions? Explain to them that my motives for volunteering are so that I could help support their networks and allow me the chance to learn just how a radio station is managed or maintained. Show up dressed nicely as if I were about to be interviewed too.

What do you think might happen?

Some towns have community radio stations and college/uni radio stations that are pretty much completely volunteer

Most radio stations have a procedure in place for finding interns. You could try calling them or emailing and asking, but it would probably look weird if you just showed up uninvited. That might work at smaller college/university station, but you should still probably look into it or ask around before you just show up. Maybe try to find something through your school?

Or his local Newspaper because some might say that is a growth industry of the future.

Took a quick look at Radio in Apple Valley
KATJ FM - Kat Country 100.7

KIXA FM - The Fox 106.5

KIXW AM - Talk 960

KZXY FM - Y102

KATJ-HD2 FM - HD 96.3

Damn all the same owner.

And they even have Job openings - Somewhat strange because they require ability to travel to Arizona San Louie Obispo Santa Maria where they expect one person to handle all there is to handle in say Broadcast Engineer or Sales Manager -

They look dicey for local help EXCEPT they have one employee who was born at the station Colleen Quinn and her Husband who is on air at a different time AND Colleen and Husband can be viewed in Pics with Rush Limburger Sweat shirts on. Probably not so much LGBTQXYZ Friendly

Oh Snap - Found more and it's worth a quick look for fun - 10 Total stations and apparently most just re-broadcast Rush Limburger or Ryan Seacreast

@OP

You might wind up on the casting couch in the back room with two or three young gentlemen very interested in your talents.
