About us
Established in 1937, OAB is one of the nation’s oldest state broadcast associations. With approximately 95 percent of Ohio TV stations and 80 percent of Ohio radio stations as members, OAB advocates on behalf of Ohio’s broadcast industry in Washington and in Columbus. OAB also offers its members services and support they won't find anywhere else — including legal and engineering hotlines, EEO compliance assistance, online training resources, and much more. One of the services the OAB offers is a job board for broadcasters to post position openings. To post a job, create a member profile and request a username at www.oab.org/jobs. The public can also search job openings and create user profiles at www.oab.org/jobs.
