Arent apprenticeships really just Internships?
No. Typically, internships are only available to currently enrolled college students. In exchange for free labor, radio stations will give college credits to student interns. Radio stations will usually assign interns where the need is greatest – which could be anything from performing administrative duties to handing out tee-shirts or bumper stickers through their promotions department. At no point in time does radio station management imply, state, or promise that interns will be trained specifically for eventual on-air broadcasting jobs.
