I am currently looking to broaden my skills within the communications sector.
Being the executive producer of a live radio show means I have the ability to be flexible in changing situations, think on a whim, maintain good relationships with people and deliver engaging content to a professional standard.
I would love the opportunity to work for your company, to share my skills and expand my knowledge even further.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Hannah.
It has taught me how to handle all different types of stories, people, politics and has meant I have to engage a target audience who'd be just getting up to start their day.
The skills I have learned across media platforms in the last three years differ significantly.
Producing has been a great learning curve, teaching me to be part of a team where they choose quality over quantity in terms of delivering the freshest stories, angles and talent. Being the show’s sole producer has taught me the importance of connecting with, and creating professional relationships with, a wide range of PR specialists, economists, brands and other media companies. The quick-pace environment has taught me the most about time management and organisation. In my 1 year at Today FM and 1.5 years with TVNZ , it taught me to think outside the box with interviews, write long-form original stories, juggle timetables and cameras, interview subjects for the 6pm news and make great connections in the news industry. Being part of the junior producing team meant I have learned how to cut images and write news promos for the 6pm news as well. I also had a few months work experience with Re News to gain further written skills aimed at a younger target audience, which helped me to create new relationships within the media. The events I have covered for example are: Budget Week, the Queen’s death, and funeral, Merit Awards, the death of dairy-worker Janak Patel, the Oscar Awards, school and climate strikes, Election 2023 and the 2023 Rugby World Cup- to name a few. Alongside my AUT Communications degree, I was provided with a scholarship opportunity to complete a Massey short course on global studies and understanding intercultural communication- AFS’s Global Competence Certificate Programme 2021. I have a hard working and determined mindset, capable of completing any task set for me individually or set as a team.
