We’re asking WSU students to come apply and be part of our group. We have some of our beloved staff graduating this spring and our 24-hour streaming radio needs to still be functioning. Apply for the job, what could it hurt? You might need the KWCR App Form 16-17, too. (Deadline = Friday, March 4)
Yeah, I know what you’re thinking, “People who aren’t cool are the ones who say they are. If they have to write a title for shameless self-promotion, they must be extremely odd.” Full disclosure: our KWCR Radio crew is eclectic, a little weird, a smidgen chill, but my goodness, we are highly entertaining. There is rarely a dull moment when we’re together and we know how to make great, good and wonderful things happen.
What you get out of working for KWCR:
- 1-3 credits of upper division hours
- An office for your station and schoolwork
- A great entry on your resume
- A group of people who will have your back in a dance off (maybe)
- Access to all the legally-acquired music in our station
- On-the-job training to run station eqipment
- Collaboration in many different areas of radio station operation
What we are looking for:
- General Manager (Ever managed anything before? This’ll be an even better resume entry.)
- Program Director (You’ll be deciding what the station sounds like with our specialty shows.)
- Music Director (Your connections with music promoters will grow exponentially. #networking)
- News gathering (We partner with Signpost and local music scenes.)
- Production (Create some fantastic audio samples for your portfolio and produce podcasts.)
- Public relations (This is as far-reaching as possible.)
- Graphic design (You make us look good and we make you look even better.)
- On-ground promotions (People skills are a plus but we just want people to love music.)
- Event hosting (If you can call out names at an Open Mic and keep an event rolling, we’ll snatch you up.)
- Spanish-Language Programming (Our Spanish-speaking listeners are our strongest following with Domingos Latinos.)
- Engineering (We have big pretty toys that light up; someone has to keep them working.)
- Information Technology – IT (Look, we have trouble hooking up our printer; don’t judge us.)
- Social Media Curation (We can help you with your Instagram game and help you create a fantastic skillset.)
- Sports (Call games for WSU and other local sporting teams. If you want to cover it, we’ll probably let you.)
- Sponsorships (Sell ads for the station with a few others on the media team.)
Sound good yet? Check out the specific job listing on our page and email robinhaislett@weber.edu with your application or questions. Jump over to the station itself and hand it in if you’re into that.
See you soon!
