Many young people are attracted to wonder: Is there a place for me in the broadcast media field? People in the business warn that the road to a successful broadcast media career can be very rocky. They point out that getting started in the field is often difficult. To begin with, competition for most broadcast jobs can be fierce. Then, once on the job, the pressure is often big.

If there is a media resource department in your school, volunteer to do anything. If there is no media department, take photos of games and social events. Work on the drama productions or write for the school newspaper. Many beginners in broadcasting start at small local radio or TV stations.
