2. Come up with original story ideas and produce original stories that you will shoot and edit.
3. Deliver stories which will stand out from the competition, emphasizing creativity over traditional methods.

7. Because news never stops - you are prepared to work evenings and weekends.
8. Valid driver’s licence and clean driving record.
