The Training Program:
Are you tired of just watching from the sidelines? Ready to stop "shadowing" and start actually doing the work that reaches thousands of people every single day? We’re looking for the next generation of media powerhouses, producers, reporters, weather experts, and sales executives who are hungry to dive head-first into the fast-paced world of local media. This isn't your typical "get the coffee" internship.
The Gray Media Training Program is a high-octane, 10-week immersive experience where you don’t just learn the job; you own it. Whether you’re crafting the lead story for the evening news, tracking a cold front on our weather tech, or closing a digital ad deal, you’ll be a vital part of our award-winning team from day one. The intern rate of pay can range from your state's minimum wage to $15.00/hr.
General Responsibilities:
- Support daily operations: Dive into the fast-paced world of local news, assisting various departments (news, production, digital) with their crucial day-to-day tasks.
- Create engaging content: Help craft stories, social media posts, and digital updates that resonate with our New Orleans audience.
- Research and fact-check: Assist reporters and producers in gathering information, verifying details, and ensuring accuracy across all platforms.
- Learn multi-platform workflows: Get hands-on experience with how content moves from concept to broadcast, streaming, and social channels.
- Assist with field assignments: Potentially join crews on location, observing live shoots and contributing to the logistics of remote broadcasts.
- Collaborate and contribute: Bring your fresh ideas to team meetings, offering new perspectives on storytelling and audience engagement.
What You’ll Do:
- Own the role: Step into the shoes of a producer, MMJ, meteorologist, or media sales executive and handle real-world assignments (yes, the kind that may go on air and online).
- Drive digital engagement: Create content that lives beyond the TV screen- think social media, streaming apps, and web stories because we’re digital-first, always.
- Collaborate with pros: Work side-by-side with seasoned veterans who are the best in the business, gaining insights…
