Internships at KRNT

Saga Communications' Des Moines Radio Group is hiring for promotions and marketing internships year round!

If you are motivated to extend your education in radio broadcasting beyond the classroom, and have a desire to get your foot in the door at Des Moines' highest-rated group of stations, you would make a great member of the Des Moines Radio Group Promotions team!

Our vision. It is the vision of the Des Moines Radio Group Internship program to
  • Educate. Providing a fun, well-rounded introduction to all facets of broadcasting by constantly teaching the values and properties of the industry, through experience and example.
  • Prepare. Utilizing the strengths of Des Moines Radio Group to help promo staff acquire additional skills and confidence to succeed in the real world.
  • Respect. Recognizing promo staff as invaluable members of our team, staff will be treated with fairness and equality.

The Des Moines Radio Group Internship Program will result in understanding of our stations and the skills to implement their goals. Through education, preparation and respect, we will offer the most sought after broadcast experience in Iowa.

The Perks. You will get the chance to attend station events, concerts, movie premieres, and private VIP listener parties. Plus, you will have the opportunity to interact and network with department heads, on-air staff, and industry insiders, all excited to help you advance your broadcast career!

The Work. You will interact with the nearly 300,000 listeners of Des Moines Radio Group's six stations on a daily basis. By executing marketing campaigns and on-the-street promotions for clients and various charity organizations, you will become a vital asset to our success! And - of course - there's the not so glamorous office work too (but the boss finally gets his own coffee). It is hard work - but very rewarding.

This is an unpaid internship. There is an opportunity, after complete training, to receive engineer fees.

To Apply. If you are excited to learn, become a part of the big picture, and - most importantly - have fun, apply now! Send your resume, cover letter, and recommendations to:
