Pilots of Beijing's airwaves

Radio Beijing is scouting for new voices. The radio station has just started its four-step search for "distinctive, educated and capable" anchors who speak standard Chinese.

Contestants are expected to be tested on their ability to do news anchoring, program design and collaborate with other speakers.

Those who wish to join Radio Beijing can visit the station's official website and Sina Weibo account for application forms. They can either submit their audio, video clips to Radio Beijing or go to the test centers in person before May 20.
