A question for you good FOX folks..

I'm just curious-I always wondered how it works  with all the comings and goings in the  local tv stations markets -how do you get your jobs etc?

for most of us we have an interview or two, then get hired -and if all goes well  your in  until you decide to leave.etc.

but how about you guys?  is there a TV  news anchor help wanted section? how do you find other  places to work?

and I notice you all have contracts so is that how it works you  get a contract for a certain amount of years ?  then you have to re-negotiate etc?  and what happens if you dont get a new contract?  whats the average length of a contract?

do you all have agents to do that? who negotiates your salary?

Do you get paid like the majority of us  IE by weekly?

in your contract    do the company provide health care etc?  or do you pay through the nose?

how about bonuses etc??  or do you have stipulations that you must be on air a certain amount of time??

Just wondered how it all works !

 

Thanks.

That's a lot of questions, FloridaBrit! ~ LOL

I can answer at least one of them. If you click on the "About Us" tab above and then click on the "FOX 35 Jobline" icon, you will see all the job opportunities that are available at FOX 35.

I guess that would be a start ...

Do the OBAMA rule..... ask for the job with no experience and accomplishments.... they have to give it to you if Obama is elected.
