Professional Placement Report
Zhejiang Television Station is the most famous station in Zhejiang Province and its news television programs and journalists are the most professions are the most professional ones. Therefore I do want to have internship in the station during summer holiday. At first, I had emailed my resume to the producer of the news program and explained my wish and strength in a personal statement. But she told me that the program had no plan to recruit any interns in the summer. I felt disappointed yet then I realized that one of my mother’s friends- Liu Fei, was the producer’s classmate in university so that I asked Liu to help me get a chance to have a interview with the producer and then I could persuade her to give me the placements myself. During the interview, I explained my performance in the university, showed her some video clips and podcasts I have done during study and told her my strong intension of experiencing journalism in television program. Finally, she agreed to give me the opportunity to do internship in the program but what I could only do is to be an assistant of anchors or camera men during broadcasting which meant I had no right to report news myself or to do some journalism interview myself. Whatever, this was still a great opportunity to become a real journalists.
