Media Organization: PocketNewZ Corp
Company Description
THIS IS PRIMARILY A REMOTE JOB.
We seek self-starters with an entrepreneurial desire who are interested in changing the way news is gathered and empowering people. It’s not a small mission, but it’s one that is long overdue, given the technology available, the opportunities that arise all over the globe, and the need for thoughtful, honest, transparent, user-generated content from people who do not need to sell advertising or continuously provide click-bait. We need a couple of energetic journalism or communications students who can organize testers, coordinate feedback, and help us grow and develop the app.
We will provide extensive guidance as to what we need done. If you’re in NYC, we will meet regularly, but we expect you to work on a project/task-oriented basis. We expect tons of communication.
We can’t offer much to start, but if you’re good and work at the opportunity, we’re happy to reward you. And clearly, we seek future potential employees. For now, this is an independent contractor position. It’s all about the app.
