Prasar Bharati Anchor-cum-Correspondent & Senior Correspondent Recruitment 2026: 5 Vacancies

This opportunity is ideal for seasoned media professionals, particularly those with a robust background in journalism and mass communication. Candidates should possess excellent on-air communication skills, a strong news sense, and proven experience in live reporting, bulletin presentation, and field coverage. Individuals seeking a challenging contractual role within India's public service broadcaster, with a preference for proficiency in both English and Hindi, will find this suitable.

This recruitment is not suitable for individuals seeking permanent government employment or those who do not meet the specified minimum experience criteria (ranging from 2 to 10 years, depending on the grade). Aspirants lacking strong presentation skills, camera presence, or a foundational degree/PG Diploma in journalism/mass communication should not apply, as these are critical requirements for the roles.

Working with Prasar Bharati, India's public service broadcaster, offers a platform of significant national reach and prestige within the media landscape. While these positions are contractual for an initial one-year period, they provide invaluable exposure and a chance to contribute to national news dissemination. Performance-based annual renewals offer stability for strong performers, but long-term growth is structured within this contractual framework rather than traditional civil service progression.
