Media-Related Job

Media Organization: dealnews.com, Inc.

Company Description

Every day, DealNews brings you the best deals available on the hottest items on the Internet. We scour over 2,000 online retailers and tens of thousands of deals to deliver the best 200+ deals each and every day — the kinds of deals you'd normally only see on Black Friday. We verify that each deal is valid, the lowest total price we could find, and from a reputable retailer. Then and only then do we post it for you. We take getting a bargain seriously, and then share what we find with you.

Back in 1997, DealNews started as a couple of friends hunting for good deals on cool technology gadgets, computers and electronics and then sharing that information to more friends on the DealNews website. We’ve since grown to include a large professional writing and editing staff, numerous web-savvy engineers and designers, and more. However, the core reason for what we do hasn’t changed. We love getting a great deal on really cool stuff, and we want to share.

Job Description

The DealNews features team produces the long-form articles that appear on dealnews.com. We aim to offer our bargain-hunting readers in-depth advice, analysis, and news about savvy shopping techniques and various retail product categories.

Responsibilities

We are looking for a Features Editor who will assist the Features Director in producing five daily articles. This predominantly entails editing "raw" copy for grammar and style, as well as identifying problem areas, in terms of narrative and factual accuracy. The editor will then format copy in our custom CMS so that it conforms to preferred HTML practices and looks visually appealing.

To Apply

To apply for the position, please send a cover letter and resume in an email to jobs-fe2014@dealnews.com with the subject line: DealNews Features Editor.
