⟩ Tell me what are the professional options for someone graduating from a broadcasting or audio engineering program? Is an internship period almost always required in radio?
I would say that experience is probably the first thing a potential employer looks for. That can come, as in my case, from active involvement with the campus radio (or TV) station. Otherwise, internship can be helpful. I should point out, though, that my station, WVIA, we do not put interns on the air. They work behind the scenes. But this policy varies at other stations.
