Karma Denton – Nights Recipient of Top Intern Award
The program at OCB is very fun and challenging, you’re going to enjoy it. However, I feel the most important thing about the program is the opportunity to obtain an internship. I strongly suggest you make as much time available for it as possible. If you went to a four-year school you would have to wait until your junior year to even be eligible to apply for one, so to be able to intern after only a few months at OCB really will put you ahead. The atmosphere of professionalism and intense pressure of the workplace will open your eyes to what broadcasting is really all about. Once you get one, perform as if you are a new hire; ask questions, don’t chit-chat, observe your co-workers, and interact with everyone. Just do the job, don’t sit there looking around wondering what to do, you must take the initiative. Good luck. So here’s my favorite inspirational quote to help get you motivated; “Begin now to live like a master, it is time to laugh at all your fears”.
