Out of the Ashes of Covid-19 has risen the Music Jocks! Day time shifts are now very sought after in the radio industry as most breakfast shows around the country have leaned on networking.
If you can land a role as a music announcer it’s certainly something that might service you well later down the track. There are not too many breakfast announcers that can pull a music shift or visa versa so why not take the opportunity to learn.
