Of these 40, nine have entered ASR Media\u2019s team as full-time employees in entry-level editing and production positions. While most of these hires came from local colleges, they have not all originally hailed from the Greater Lehigh Valley region. Some have come from much farther, as natives of New York and even Arkansas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe team at ASR Media is proud of how we can provide opportunities to local college students and invest in our community by creating entry-level jobs,\u201d says Katie Santana, vice president of production &amp; operations and head of the internship program. \u201cI know first-hand how hard it can be to get your foot in the door in a heavily skills-based industry, such as television and video production. I am happy to work at ASR Media, where we give meaningful experiences to young, local creatives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>ASR Media ensures interns and full-time staff members fully immerse themselves in the Lehigh Valley professional community.
