The station I work at is down at least 15 positions. Some jobs have been open for two years.

The remaining staff is required to step up.

Additional positions are opening up as contracts are either broken or expire.

How are people able to keep their mental health up when their station isn’t hiring people they need and refuse to pay living wages to potential prospects or promote those remaining?

Btw, I have been applying for other locations. No luck. I often come in “second place” behind inside applications.

So saying “leave & go somewhere else” isn’t exactly a helpful statement.

If it's their fault then the most logical thing is that you should look for another place that really wants to progress, for that they must be willing to hire the right people and pay them accordingly.

The higher ups don’t see the reason to provide wage increases. They have admitted this often.

Any hire that asks for wages that reflect the cost of living in the area are turned down.

Ugh. I'm so sorry that you're going through this. I know this doesn't fix the wage problem, but does your company have a referral program for potential new hires? Maybe that would help fill some of the roles. Even so, I would keep applying to other roles on the side... something good will come your way!

We have several universities that refer their graduates to us often, however, when it comes to wages, the brass won’t budge which causes many people to walk away from interviews. It’s been very difficult recently.

Have you tried utilizing LinkedIn to apply for jobs & investigate job leads? There's a feature where you can update your profile to say "open to work." It only shows up for recruiters, so no one at your current company will see. I had some luck getting a few leads this way. Best of luck to you!!!

I use LinkedIn often. And I’ve applied for many jobs that way. Sadly I’ve not had much luck. It doesn’t help I’m in a dying position because many stations are condensing editing jobs into other jobs or keeping it to part time.

I got an offer at Meta as a 3-mo contingent CSM that pays 2x what I make now.

Two pros: 1) Making the jump from a non-tech agency role to FAANG can be tough, so this is a great oppo in that aspect.
2) I'm living in SF on a non-tech salary, so the pay increase would be incredible.

It’s possible I could move into a similar role @ Meta once this expires, but to be safe, I'd need to start the job hunt again asap.

Thoughts on the pivot & how valuable a short-stint at Meta is for future job hunt?
