On Air Talent Personality / Part-time Weekends & Fill-in
About The Position
Do you have the kind of personality your friends are sick of hearing… but strangers would probably love? 101 WIXX, the number one radio station in Northeast Wisconsin, is looking for part-time, LIVE weekend on-air personalities to bring energy and good vibes to the station. Whether you’ve been on the air for years or your current “show” is yelling at your car radio, we want to hear from you. We’re open to both experienced talent and brand-new voices with the right attitude. What You’ll Do: Host live shows on weekends (and occasional fill-in shifts for vacations, holidays, and when someone inevitably loses their voice) Do fun, tight, personality-filled breaks: pop culture, local stuff, listener interaction Take listener calls and texts, and actually put them on the air Execute contests, giveaways, and station promotions without accidentally giving away the station van Do your own show prep: find relatable, local, and timely content instead of just reading the internet cold Why Join Us? Get real, live on-air reps on a heritage, market-leading station. Build your demo and your brand in a legit, top-rated radio environment. Work with a fun, slightly unhinged but supportive group of radio people. Great stepping stone if you want to grow into more hours or a bigger role down the line. Perfect side gig for students, creators, or anyone who’s always wanted to say, “Sorry, I can’t, I have to be LIVE on the air.” If you’re ready to crack the mic LIVE, make people laugh, and sound like you belong on 101 WIXX, we want to hear from you. Apply now and tell us why weekends sound better with you on WIXX. Midwest Communications, Inc. is an Equal Opportunity Employer by choice.
Requirements
- A natural, authentic on-air sound, less “robot DJ,” more “fun friend in the car.”
- Ability to follow a format clock and still sound like a human being
- Basic board-op skills are great, but if you’re inexperienced and willing to learn quickly, we’ll teach you
- A sense of humor, thick skin, and willingness to take direction from programming
- Experienced talent: prior on-air, podcasting, or media background is a big plus.
- No experience yet? If you’ve got raw personality, hustle, and can take coaching, you’re absolutely still in the running.
Nice To Haves
- Familiarity with Northeast Wisconsin is a bonus… knowing how to say “Oconto” helps.
