Is there a future in radio for these girls?
They might want to reconsider after reading the blog Random Ramblings of a Radio Chick. Radio Chick describes herself as “I’m an unemployed, incredibly talented and extremely frustrated radio personality with over 10 years of major market experience.” The blog tells what’s it like to be an on-air radio personality in this current economic climate.
Her latest blog entry is about a recent job announcement that states:
We’re a Rock AC station in search of a midday voice tracker. Females STRONGLY ENCOURAGED TO APPLY. Pay is $200/month for 5 weekly shows, each show 6 hours in length (around 36 tracks per show). Perfect candidate will have experience in an Active Rock environment, but will know how to deliver the format in a Top 40 fashion.
If you’re in the radio industry, you will instantly shake your head, you might even be LMAOROTF; if you’re a radio listener then I encourage you to follow the post and find out how incredibly ridiculous this job announcement is?
The only problem is… I think this job posting is real!
