Hi Qtv, I really don’t meet the above requirements because I didn’t complete my DIPLOMA COURSE IN BROADCAST JOURNALISM. The only bit that I didn’t do is the exam because of huge amount of school fee balance that I owed the Mombasa Polytechnic University College. I therefore ask you to give me a chance in your station on broadcasting and I assure you that I will deliver. Am currently doing something as a receptionist at Unity College Of Professional Studies. Looking forward for your response. Thank you very much.
