Accuracy and good communication skills are qualities you must possess. For an enthusiastic team player this is a chance to gain superb professional development and prospects for career advancement. You will have the opportunity to learn from experienced personnel and assist other staff members on special assignments and to collaborate in a highly stimulating and creative atmosphere.
We offer a business casual work environment and excellent benefits including 75% paid medical, dental, drug plan.
This position will entail both writing and editing daily articles while we attempt to build a strong readership across the country.
Our site is different from most sports pages, in that we're dedicated to promoting the positive aspects of the sports world, as opposed to the tabloid-style, Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Michael Vick, O.J.-type stuff you see on television and hear on the radio all too often.
We love the games, the players and especially the atmosphere that surrounds every sport we watch. And we want someone who understands that philosophy to be part of our team as an SEC correspondent.
We're putting together a search for writers willing to give us the lowdown on the sports vibe in your respective city, town and state - as well as your perspective on the rest of the country. We want to hear what people are talking about, what they're reading, what the rumors are and any other inside scoop you may pick up.
If you think that's something you could handle, we want to talk to you.
This is a part-time gig that'll give you the opportunity to have a regular byline and to be a part of the growth of www.theloveofsports.com.
We'll select one Editor-In-Chief per campus and pay them $100 a month for coordinating at least three blog posts per week (Monday-Friday) - you can write your own posts, or source them from other students (if you do recruit other people at your school to blog, their posts contribute to your required 12 per month).
You don't have to be a stiff English major or a journalism pro to apply, but you do need to have an engaging personality, active social life, and a strong desire to create a blog your campus wants to read every day.
