Gannett's Talent Development Program Participants Graduate

Gannett (NYSE:GCI) has graduated the second class of its innovative and award-winning Talent Development Program, which recruits, hires and trains top U.S. graduating college seniors annually.

The program identifies candidates while they are still in college and guides them through to pre-assigned jobs at Gannett operations around the country.

The class of 31 was chosen from among 1,260 applications received early in the year. The program participants then experienced a summer of on-the-job training and mentoring in multiple disciplines at Gannett sites around the country. A third class will be chosen next spring from applications received beginning Oct. 20.

The Talent Development Program is a win for everyone involved. Gannett gains superior talent and the graduates receive a head start on their preferred careers, said Roxanne Horning, senior vice president of human resources for Gannett. We couldnt be happier with the result, not only with this years class but the continuing success of our first graduating class.

The program has consistently attracted top candidates in journalism, multimedia, advertising and circulation, said Virgil Smith, vice president of talent management for Gannett and the programs developer.
