Mustang Media Group’s cohort program aims to better transition and train students to be a member of Mustang Media Group. This ten-week training program will help new members understand MMG and expose them to different parts of the organization.
WHAT THEY WILL DO: Each member of the program will rotate biweekly through different teams in the organization, such as the MN News Team, MNTV, Social Media, etc. This will give them the opportunity to explore MMG and will prepare them to apply for a permanent position. Some examples of responsibilities may include:
- Pitching and finding stories
- Working on setting up cameras for video packages
- Editing a social media post
- Shadowing reporters on interviews
All candidates chosen will be required to attend weekly Sunday meetings during the ten weeks from 5:00-5:50 p.m. All applicants will be contacted regardless of selection. Selected applicants will be sent information for an interview. Candidates chosen for the program will be required to attend an orientation training.
