“Sound Advice” Bridges the Gap for Future Radio Careers

In an era where traditional career guides often fall short, a new free eBook titled “Sound Advice: A Guide to Navigating Careers in the Modern and Future Radio Digital Media Landscape” is set to revolutionize how students approach careers in radio.

Authored by Earl Pilkington, a veteran broadcaster with over 40 years of experience, this 40-page guide is designed for secondary and tertiary education students interested in creative, technical, or business roles within the radio industry.

As commercial radio in Australia reaches record audiences and internet radio revenue grows at an impressive 11.6% annually, the opportunities in this field are expanding.

However, many existing career guides have not kept pace with these changes, leaving students without the necessary insights to navigate this evolving landscape.

“Sound Advice” provides a comprehensive overview of various roles in radio, including on-air programming, news, promotions, engineering, sales, management, and digital content.

It also delves into emerging tech-driven jobs such as transmedia storytellers and voice tech experts, offering career-building strategies that encompass education options, internships, and self-directed learning tips.

This guide provides an up-to-date, global look at where radio is heading—and how students can find their place in it, while aiming to inspire the next generation of radio professionals to think beyond traditional roles and plan their future careers in this dynamic industry.

“Sound Advice” is an invaluable resource for high school and university career counsellors, media studies educators, and student job seekers alike.
