Answer

None. I am advised that the Broadcasting Standards Authority, Television New Zealand (TVNZ) and Radio New Zealand (RNZ) do not offer full time graduate programmes. I am further advised that TVNZ and RNZ instead offer various short-term internships and scholarships for students and recent graduates.
