NAEB Newsletter (December 1, 1963)

Placement Office Needs Positions Some 250 persons who are actively seeking employment in edu¬ cational broadcasting have credentials on file at the NAEB Placement Office. Placement Officer Julie Hunt says that the number is increasing rapidly and that the range of candidates is wide—from technicians to station managers, and from re¬ cent college graduates to NAEBers with extensive broadcast experience. Currently “Positions Available” are not keeping up with “Personnel Available.” Institutional members can obtain a free screening service by listing openings with the NAEB Placement Office. Location preferences and minimum salary requirements are considered —and thus the institution is not bothered by Mr. X, who wants to work on the West Coast for a salary of $10,000, while the job is in New England at $7,500! Credentials of the screened applicants are sent to the NAEB institution to be examined leisurely. The institution then contacts the appli¬ cants of interest directly. (Candidates do not contact the in¬ stitution.) For further information on how the NAEB Placement Serv¬ ice operates, write Miss Julie Hunt, NAEB, 1346 Connecti.- cut Avenue, N.W„ Washington, D.C., 20036.
