Careers

Independent, ethical journalism is what fuels a healthy society. At ICELAND TV NEWS we cover the most relevant topics and tell stories that no one is telling. All this wouldn’t be possible without our team of brave journalists, marketers, data scientists, IT engineers, project managers, and many others.

The ICELAND TV NEWS follows a very diverse hiring process. This includes but is not limited to, talent scouting at conferences, consulting online databases, and tracking our competitors’ work.

When you apply for a position with The ICELAND TV NEWS, our recruitment team will check your qualifications and go through your materials. After a thorough check, they will decide whether you are the person we are looking for or not.

In case you meet our criteria, one of our recruiting officers will touch base with you via phone or email to learn more about you as a person, as well as your professional experience and background. After which, a face-to-face job interview might follow. The hiring process, however, varies from position to position, but it typically entails an in-person meeting with the department head and the would-be manager.
