Recruitment Sources
For the Digital Media Coordinator and the Account Executive, the unit is claiming egidient circumstances.  The Digital Media Coordinator proposed this position to the unit at a time when the unit had not created that position.  She was the perfect candidate so she was hired.
For the Account Executive position, the unit was not looking for new full time sales help, but a person with 20 ears of experience approached the unit and the unit hired her.
For  the Traffic Director position  an ad was placed in the Hartford Courant .  In addition, letters announcing the opening were sent to over 25 local organizations.  Information regarding all of these recruitment sources, and the number of interviewees they referred is provided in Exhibit A. 
The Unit continued to solicit organizations to join our list of organizations that would receive job postings.  This was accomplished through on-air announcements.  The Unit also responded to a number of requests via e-mail.
Recruitment Initiatives
In order to further broaden our outreach efforts to reach segments of the labor force who may be inadvertently omitted from our vacancy-specific recruitment, the Unit created, maintained or participated in the following programs.
Internship Program – The Unit has an internship programs that covers all four departments – Engineering, Programming, General Office and Sales.  For the period of 12/1/2010 – 11/30/2011, the Unit hired 15 interns who participated in both General Office and programming duties.    We continually prospected for new interns by soliciting more than ten colleges and trade schools throughout Connecticut.
Mentoring Program – Three junior members of the Unit sales staff participated in our mentoring program during the reporting period.  Mark Savage, Bill Grimmeisen and Aileen Charland were mentored by Gordon Weingarth.    The purpose of the program is to prepare the junior members for senior sales and management positions. 
Scholarship Programs – The Unit participated in a scholarship program in conjunction with the Connecticut Broadcasters Association. It was supported with on-air announcements. 
Job Fairs –   The Unit sponsored 5 Career Fairs put on by the National Career Fairs/Hartfordhires.com and one Career Fair put on by East Coast Career Fairs.  Those took place on December 5, 2010, April 11, 2011, June 20, 2011, August 1, 2011, and October 12, 2011.   We also participated in 2 Job Shadow.  In each instance the students spent the day at the stations learning about broadcasting.
Seminars – Director of Community Outreach Jay Schultz attended a seminar sponsored by the Connecticut Broadcasters Association on October 19, 2010 that updated attendees on the EEO rules.
