Radio Jockey

There are no colleges, which offer a degree course for RJ. You may pursue short-term courses which makes you learn a lot. Along with that, you don't have to appear for an entrance exam for the same.

Radio jockeying is a talent-based field. Even though no formal educational qualification is required, a degree or at least plus two is generally a pre requisite. The most essential factor for a radio jockey is a good voice with the ability to modulate as per the occasion.

Hi,
Radio Jockeying is a rising field and there are hundreds of Radio Stations by private media houses coming up in small cities all around India. Even abroad the scope is on the rise. I relate my answer more to the Indian landscape, consider the following: If the CC is done after doing graduation then a Post-Graduation in Mass Communication/Mass Media/Media Production can also be done. I shall not hesitate to suggest even a Master Degree in A Language- English, Hindi or the one you see as your preferred medium of a Radio career. The fees for the certificate course is Rs. 5000 for one month course.
Good luck.

See, follow your dreams and make a dare move. If you are serious in RJ it is a good field. But think a minute before taking a step in RJ and have a back up plan and see are you really capable to do it, if yes, proceed on to RJ rather than commerce or else go to commerce.

The jobs you may get would be more of internship and not permanent jobs. Its better to go for a slightly longer course to be able to learn in details.

There are many colleges in India from you can pursue your dream career. I recommend you to take admission at NIMCJ, Ahmedabad for Radio Journalism Course. The best part is NIMCJ ranked under top 15 mass communication college in India. Website: http://www.nimcj.org/

Dear Devesh,
It totally depends on your skills, and how wonderful RJ you are. If you are a fresher then you may get 15000K per month, and gradually its hikes. Once you are grown up in this field. The money will be in your lap and the amount will be like as much as you will ask for. There are many RJs who get their salaries in Lakhs per month.
