QUESTION 15 OF 30

What are your salary expectations?

A news director typically makes a yearly salary between 60,000-100,000, depending on the market size of the station in which the job is. The candidate should discuss their previous salary and give a range of salaries they hope to make based on their experience and previous work in similar positions.

"I have worked in many big sized television stations in the past with the utmost success. I would hope that my experience is worth 100,000-105,000 here, because I know I can help your station grow and improve over time."
