Answer

I am advised that the Broadcasting Commission (NZ On Air) had one graduate position. 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.
