Their Career

The job of music I am going to tell you about is the Program Director. Program Directors set up the music on a radio station for that day. They have to take request for music and they have to fit that music into the song selection for that day. Program Directors have to make sure that everything moves smoothly on the radio. Program Directors have to take great caution to make the station noticeable to there viewers for there own genre.

Program Director on the Road. Or Not?

Program Directors, sadly, don't go on the road. They just stay at home or at the radio station because they can't move because he needs to be there to control the playlist for that day and to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Program Director and there Required Resume

Program Directors are required to have a very expansive resume and are required to be very smart. They need to have a big enough grasp of musical education and they need to know what people like to listen to in the time era. They need to know how to use musical equipment and musical instruments. Finally, they need to know how to create scripts and a music selection for that particular day.

Their Responsibilities

Program Directors are required every day at work to create a song playlist for that day, keep the studio in check, making sure all the equipment runs smoothly, and to hire good workers and fire bad workers. The Program Director is like the manager of a radio station. They have to take on all of these tasks every day. They are the head, heart, and soul of the radio station.
