2. For each such vacancy, the recruitment resource(s) utilized to fill the vacancy (including, if applicable, organizations entitled to notification pursuant to Section 73.2080(c)(1)(ii) of the new EEO Rule, which should be separately identified), identified by name, address, contact person and telephone number;

3. The recruitment source that referred the hiree for each full-time vacancy during the Applicable Period;

4. Data reflecting the total number of persons interviewed for full-time vacancies during the Applicable Period and the total number of interviewees referred by each recruitment source utilized in connection with such vacancies: and

Equal Employment Opportunity Meetings are held on a continual basis as needed for current education to department heads as to their role and responsibilities in the EEO process. We ensure that all department heads are fully educated on their reporting documentation responsibility. We educate department heads as to anti-discrimination rules and ensure that all departments are hiring in a non-discriminatory fashion.

Each employee of the station has been provided, as part of the employee handbook, the Equal Employment Opportunity Program of KLKN-TV. This Program outlines the continuing policy of KLKN-TV to provide equal opportunity to all individuals without regard to their race, color, religion, age, national origin, or sex in all personnel actions including recruitment, evaluation, selection, promotion, compensation, training and termination. The elements of this Program include responsibility for implementation, policy dissemination, recruitment, training, and promotion.

Steve Anderson. Business Manager, attended a seminar sponsored by the Nebraska Broadcasters Association on August 11, 2005 that was presented by Deepak Massand of the Litera Corporation. This seminar focused on what the EEO rules are, what actions an employer must take each time they have a vacancy, and on a ongoing basis. EEO requirements for Prong 1 to Prong 3 were covered, including how an employer needs to conduct “meaningful self evaluation” as well as “method of ensuring equal opportunity in broadcasting to job candidates.”

KLKN-TV co-sponsored a job fair with the Lincoln Area Broadcasters group August 12, 2005 at the Cornhusker Hotel in Lincoln, Nebraska. The job fair was attended by 51 prospective/interested people that registered with an KLKN-TV Attendee Information Form and an estimated 25-50 people that attended the job fair but did not register at the KLKN-TV booth. KLKN-TV was involved in a meaningful role with the hosting of the job fair throughout the preparatory process/meetings for the job fair and ending with a follow-up meeting to discuss the positives of the job fair and where improvements can be made. Steve Anderson, Business Manager, was the Chairman of the committee that organized the job fair. Minutes of these meetings are kept in the business office’s EEO file. A broadly rotated promotional spot for the job fair ran 104 times on KLKN-TV from 8-3-03 to 8-12-05 and was also widely promoted by other members of the Lincoln Area Broadcasters group. This group included the 3 major radio groups & 3 television stations in the Lincoln market. The KLKN-TV booth at the job fair was manned at all times by 2 managers with decision making power for the station (Business Manager, Operations Manager, Local Sales Manager, News Director, and Promotions Manager).
