Recruitment Sources
For the first Digital Media Specialist ads were placed on the WCCC Facebook Page, the CBA Website and the WCCC-FM website. Those were chosen on the basis of the job description which necessitated a strong internet background. In addition, letters were sent to more than 25 local organizations.
For the second Digital Media Specialist position, we used the list of people from the first round of interviews and we sent letters to more than 25 local organizations. This position replaced the first person we had hired, so there seemed to be no need to do a separate search.
For the Business Manager, ads were placed in the Hartford Courant and Courant.com. We also enlisted the use of two employment agencies. In addition, letters were sent to at least 25 local organizations.
Information regarding all of these recruitment sources, and the number of interviewees they referred is provided in Exhibit A.
The Unit continued to solicit organizations to join our list of organizations that would receive job postings. This was accomplished through on-air announcements. The Unit also responded to a number of requests via e-mail.
Recruitment Initiatives
In order to further broaden our outreach efforts to reach segments of the labor force who may be inadvertently omitted from our vacancy-specific recruitment, the Unit created, maintained or participated in the following programs.
Internship Program– The Unit has an internship programs that covers all four departments – Engineering, Programming, General Office and Sales. For the period of 12/1/2011 – 11/30/2012, the Unit hired 12 interns who participated in both General Office and programming duties. We continually prospected for new interns by soliciting more than ten colleges and trade schools throughout Connecticut.
Mentoring Program– Three junior members of the Unit sales staff participated in our mentoring program during the reporting period. Mark Savage, Bill Grimmeisen and Aileen Charland were mentored by Gordon Weingarth. The purpose of the program is to prepare the junior members for senior sales and management positions.
Scholarship Programs– The Unit participated in a scholarship program in conjunction with the Connecticut Broadcasters Association. It was supported with on-air announcements.
Job Fairs– The Unit sponsored 3 Career Fairs put on by the National Career Fairs/Hartfordhires.com . Those took place in January, 2012, April 2012, July, 2012 and September 2012
We also instituted a Sports Journalism Job Shadow Program in conjunction with West Hartford Public Access TV and the West Hartford School System. Two students participated in that program during the period.
Seminars –Director of Community Outreach Jay Schultz attended a seminar sponsored by the Connecticut Broadcasters Association in October, 2012 that updated attendees on the EEO rules.
