Academic input, Providing the NC with quality media coverage, Learning experience for journalists, Inter-team communication.

Mechanics In order to ensure efficiency the team will be divided into 3 subteams: Photo, Video and Text. Each will be led by a member of the Editorial Team. The journalists will be able to choose a sub-team according to their preferences and skills. Therefore, we ask you to complete one task for each sphere of competences in the application, so that we can see which sub-team you would fit best.

The inter-team learning process will be made possible by allowing journalists the opportunity to try their hand at projects of other sub-teams.

Products The generated content will be split into three sections: prior, during and post session. There will be quite a lot of work and preparations before the session start, which you should be available for.

In the end our media team looks to generate images and materials for promotional purposes, magazines of high quality, and we look to visualise delegate efforts in more ways than the resolution booklet.

What can we provide you with?

Our main focus will be on offering a professional and educational atmosphere for journalists. By offering practical modules in all the spheres of the journalistic discipline, as well as by intensive deliberate practice, and optional modules throughout the session, we strive to create a comfortable learning environment for our team members, so that they fall in love with journalism. By learning to love the job, you will not work a single day at the session.

Who are we looking for?

7 enthusiastic, eager, willing to learn, creative and hard-working individuals. We welcome both Czech and international applicants.
