Media Staffing Network is partnering with the Independent Broadcasters Association as part of the IBA’s goal of helping out-of-work former radio employees. MSN plans to host webinars on how to research and target new opportunities, stand out in the hiring process, and conduct and navigate a search in a remote world.
Last week, IBA announced a ”Talent Available” section on its new website.
“With many broadcasters needing to downsize because of the impact COVID has had on the economy, there are many radio professionals looking for work,” stated Ron Stone, President and Executive Director of the IBA. “Media Staffing Network’s expertise in the media business, especially radio, will be an asset to those seeking employment, as well as to those looking to hire. We’re very pleased that they are sharing their insights and knowledge as we work together to keep radio strong and help radio talent get through a very difficult situation.”
Media Staffing Network CEO Laurie Kahn said, “When I saw the IBA announcement, I knew we had the right resources to help people get back to work, and I had to help. We’re always working to create solutions for radio operators struggling to hire and having access to those who are looking for employment can fill a lot of unique needs.”
