A field producer runs the entire production from the field, and is expected to coordinate between all teams in the field, as well as the station back home. They manage the reporter, their story, the photographers, any of the local interviews and regulations that may be in place for filming there, as well as communicating with home base about the status of the production. They are also responsible for keeping information from the story flowing on social media. The candidate must be someone who is a good manager and can juggle many responsibilities at once, and should talk to the hiring manager about their ability to take on many tasks at once.

"I believe I am a great manager because I work my best when I am busy. I am a great communicator who is always on my phone taking calls and making calls back to the station. I feel that I would help your team greatly stay organized and on track with the plan for the day."
