          Thanks PrettyPolly! I missed that one, unfortunately I don't think its suitable for me as they are looking for a news/journalism producer, I run a self produced and promoted independent EDM show, I've been building it up for 2 years now and it goes out to over 180,000 every week to a large network of stations and up to 48,000 people directly on my app, I've had over 700,000 downloads on my podcast back catalogue this year too, figures many regional stations would be proud of achieving for one little show. I've got a background in marketing, I'm sure I would be a great asset to any station, I just have to keep looking for a job, its a shame really as WLR is local to me. I will post up any more radio jobs I find in the hope that it may help somebody else on here looking for a job in radio, this thread is great for keeping up to date on what's out there.

          You mailed local stations just offering your services even if that aren't offering any jobs, if you go in and show your an asset first then ask for a job you seem even more invaluable.
