As required by Section 73.2080 of the Commission’s Rules, the stations have participated in several different recruitment activities to ensure broad outreach, including the following: 1. Biloxi School District Career Exploration Day-student shadow. On March 6th, 2014 we had a student, “Guillermo”, shadow Patty Steele of WXYK/1071 The Monkey. Guillermo passed his MCT with high percentage and the next step for his career exploration was to choose a field he might want to work in. The DJ let him stay in the control room while she was on air and producing commercials and showed him how her position interacted with the rest of the group. She spoke about her personal job history and how she became interested and employed in the broadcast industry. The request for station involvement from Mary Muniz. 2. Tulane University Career Fair. On March 13th, 2013 two of our on air personalities visited the Health Media Class career fair and spoke the specifics of crafting a PSA and how the broadcast industry strives to keep people informed. They also talked about their personal job history and how they became interested and employed in the broadcast industry. One subject was about the history of radio in America and the impacts on Americans today. We were invited to speak by Mark Manevel. 3. Governor’s Job Fair Network. Alpha Media LLC co-sponsored the April 8th 2014 Job Fair at the Biloxi Civic Center. Our Local Sales Manager is on the planning committee and helped execute this Career Fair. Including, but not limited to, organizing, setup, layout and flow of traffic, basic set up of venue, advertising, etc. The LSM attended the day-long event and manned the booth. Several resumes and applications were taken. 4. Management Hiring Training. General Manager attended online course in July 2014 on how to hire and retain good people. Covered disseminating recruitment ads for best possible candidate draw, ensuring equal opportunity employment and preventing discrimination. The 30 minute course was given online by the Leadership Academy. 5. Nativity Cub Scouts Pack 213 facility tour. Sarah Burke of the Boy Scouts of America brought in cub scouts pack 213 (approximately 9 students) to tour the radio stations on August 21st 2014. As they toured the building they stopped at different departments and an employee would tell them the details of working in that department of the radio station and encourage them to pursue a broadcast career and the importance of remaining in school. No organizations have requested notification of all job openings. Thus, all of the sources listed above were selected by the Employment Unit. Seven times monthly, each station broadcasts announcements identifying the stations as an Equal Employment Opportunity Employers, encouraging minorities and women to apply. The announcements also give notice to organizations that they may be added to a distribution list to be contacted by the stations for all full-time vacancies. The stations Human Resource Department is listed as the contact with stations physical address.
