Reporter Resume — Frequently Asked Questions

How many stories should a reporter list producing per week on their resume?

State your actual filing pace, e.g. "Filed 5-8 stories weekly on a daily deadline," since news organizations use this figure to gauge whether you can handle their volume expectations.

Should a reporter resume include broadcast or on-air experience separately?

Yes — separate print/digital reporting from any live or on-air segments, and link to a clip reel if you have broadcast experience, since these are evaluated by different hiring criteria.
