KTTC in Rochester, MN, is looking for a high-energy Multimedia Journalist (MMJ) who is ready to start their career by making a real impact. We’re not just looking for an employee; we’re looking for a storyteller who is eager to share facts, seek the truth, and own the news cycle across every screen—from the TV in the living room to the phone in the palm of a viewer's hand.
Duties/Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
What You'll Do:
• Own the news cycle: Gather, shoot, and edit high-impact content for multiple platforms, ensuring our audience stays informed.
• Pitch with purpose: Come ready to the editorial meeting with researched ideas pitched through Microsoft Teams. You’ll have already made the calls and prearranged interviews to hit the ground running.
• Master the multi-platform: Write and adapt stories for different screens—from the morning news to quick social updates and deep-dive web articles.
• Report live from the scene: Be the first on the ground when news breaks, delivering authoritative and calm live reports that keep our viewers connected.
• Verify and validate: Gather and verify factual information through interviews, observation, and deep research—because accuracy is our foundation.
• Manage your time: Take charge of your daily workflow—from getting out the door for fresh video to editing your final masterpiece before the deadline hits.
• Stay agile: Update stories as they evolve and be ready to fill in on different shifts when the news demands it. Why You'll Love It Here:
• A launchpad for your career: Join a young, energetic newsroom led by anchors with decades of experience who are eager to mentor the next generation of journalists.
• Growth every day: We believe feedback should happen in real time, not just during a yearly review. You’ll grow faster here than anywhere else.
• Innovation focus: KTTC is evolving on purpose—we’re serious about the future of media and want you to help shape it.
• Community impact: Tell stories that actually matter to the people of Rochester and the surrounding area.
• Supportive culture: We value scrappiness and digital innovation, but we also value our people. You’ll have the tools and the team to do your best work.
Qualifications/Requirements: What You Bring:
• The mindset: Above all else, a relentless desire to learn, seek the truth, and share stories that matter.
• Strong writing chops: You craft scripts and articles that are tight, clear, and compelling (AP style is your best friend).
• Technical potential: While we can teach you to shoot and edit video, a familiarity with camera equipment and systems like ENPS or Edius is a great head start.
• Self-motivated hustle: The ability to work independently in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment without breaking a sweat.
• Versatility: You can manage multiple projects at once and pivot quickly when breaking news hits.
• A valid driver’s license: You’re ready to hit the road and go where the story takes you.
• Human qualities: Empathy for the stories you tell, urgency in how you tell them, and the flexibility to roll with the punches of a dayside shift.
