Warren, I think you should familiarise yourself with the employment equality act and modify your OP accordingly!

Imaging issues so early.

Jesus lads, give the guy a break. He's looking for help here.

@pumpkinsoup - employment law is irrelevant as no "employment" will take place. These are voluntary positions.

As a member myself of OpenFM's production and presentation crew, I can tell you that the promotion gang have a great amount of fun getting out there and promoting the station - but they ARE a bit stretched with their limited numbers and they're simply looking for a few more bodies who can spare a few hours a week to help out getting the name of this very worthwhile station out there.

@Tchaikovsky - if I thought you were being serious, I'd laugh. OpenFM is just that - OPEN - open to all people of all body types, races, sexualities, etc.

Fago!

No... They took me on.

Also +1 Bard.

Give them a facking break you skeptical hippies!!!

Tchaikovsky

Ah, good to hear; it's just from seeing the promotional girls for Spin and 98FM and all those awful travesties they call radio stations, they seem to go for a certain type of female.

Best of luck with the station, guys!

Fair enough. I didn't pick that up when I read the OP.

Still, it's not very nice to use the term "young" when recruiting people. If you were paying these people (which you're not) it would be the legal equivalent of saying no blacks or no gays under the employment equality act. Even though the act may not apply to OpenFM in this case, some minimum standards are also expected from volunteering organisations. Here's a link to the Irish charter for effective volunteering: http://www.volunteeringireland.ie/page.php?id=9

Organisations' responsibilities

* To ensure the volunteering experience is a rewarding one
* To ensure equal access and not to discriminate

Young or young at heart maybe?

Bard

While it just so happens that most of the people involved in the station ARE young, I'm sure that being below a certain age is absolutely not a 'requirement' of any kind.

Fago!

I'm young. HAHAHA stupid old people!

There are people of all ages involved in the station. The man and woman running it are nearly 40 *I think* and 23 respectivly.

Some (the majority) of the station is young, some are older. Just like any other organisation.

Mr.Mister

I'm a presenter on the station and i'm 28,is that young or old?

Fago!

Quick Query, Do you mean C.V. when you say to forward applications?

It can't hurt to send in your CV, but I don't think it's necessary. Do it anyway. Better for us to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it.

Best of luck.

Listened up to openfm a few times this week ,it comes across as a young station alright.

It's great to have such a station ,but I don't like the fact that it's so young biased.

I'm suprised not to see more threads about the station to be honest.

Mr. Mister I would say you are middle aged from a young 50 year old ...... ok I act like a 10 year old but hen that a different story

Ads are ads ,giving away free xbox games isn't going to pay the bills.

I'm not here to be a pesimist ,it's a great concept and I hope all do well.
