Extremely positive, a very good ND
Read MoreGreat starter market. Smaller market, smaller staff so you are expected to wear many hats even at the entry level, but upper management and co-workers were always very supportive. Very hands on and engaged news director, but he does not micromanagement staff, a very good quality in an ND. Pay is average for a small market in the industry but Cville can be a tad expensive without roommates. Since I’ve left station was recently sold by Gray to another company, so I do not know the effects of that but overall I really enjoyed my time here.

One of the best in the business
Read MoreCharlottesville is one of the best starter markets to work in. When you come here, you will get a great resume reel. Several alumni have ended up in top markets in just a few short years. Everyone here works as a team. News director is involved of every aspect of what you do, and wants to set you up for success. I highly recommend this station to anyone looking for a great first job.
