CCTV (China Central Television) began its 2018 college recruitment drive at Renmin University of China in Beijing on November 17.
The first campus talk in search of the next year’s brightest and best was themed “Hand in hand, CCTV Invites You to Build a New Era.”
Anchors, editors, reporters and producers as well as CCTV recruits of 2017 shared their working experiences with nearly 1,000 prospective graduate students of 2018.
The students were taken through the four chapters of “beginner’s heart, dream, persistence and innovation” that capture the CCTV experience.
