Broad Media journalism graduate programme: opportunity overview
Paid newsroom training
Broad Media advertises a three-month, full-time journalism graduate programme paying R20,000 per month. It is an in-office opportunity in Centurion, Gauteng, with employer-provided journalism training. No guaranteed permanent appointment is stated.
Who can apply
The programme welcomes university graduates from different disciplines, including people graduating this year and recent graduates. A journalism degree is not required. Applicants need excellent writing ability and an interest in news and writing.
Online application requirements
The official page has a live application form. It requests contact details, highest qualification, age and matric subjects. Upload the CV and cover letter together as one PDF, using a filename without special characters. The page says an email confirmation follows submission. No deadline is specified on this page.
Practical application preparation
The following suggestions are independent editorial guidance, not additional employer requirements.
Choose a story you can explain
Prepare to discuss a real news development: what happened, who is affected, what is confirmed and what remains uncertain. Avoid copying another publication’s article into your application. If you write a sample, identify your sources and distinguish evidence from your interpretation. A short, accurate piece is more useful than dramatic claims that cannot be supported.
Make your degree relevant without overstating it
A degree outside journalism can still provide subject knowledge and research practice. Describe a project in which you compared sources, checked an argument or explained a complex idea clearly. Do not imply that studying a subject makes you an expert in every aspect of it. The useful evidence is your actual method and the clarity of your writing.
Review the combined PDF
Check that both documents are present, readable and in the intended order. Remove tracked changes and private notes. Ensure your phone number and email address are correct before uploading. Keep your own copy of the final version and any confirmation; an acknowledgement is not a job offer.
Consider the office commitment
Think about transport and the practical cost of attending the office. Ask about working hours and the precise remuneration structure if you reach the interview stage. The advertised monthly figure should not be presented as guaranteed take-home pay. This preparation advice is independent editorial guidance, not additional employer eligibility criteria.
How to apply
Read the current official vacancy, follow its application link and complete the requested fields accurately. Review your documents and retain the submission confirmation.
