Sports Correspondent
Contributors at isportsweb.com will be assigned to cover a sports beat for a team they have interest in. As that team’s correspondent, you will be expected to generate multiple stories per week about that team. These stories can and should be opinionated, and we give our writers freedom to pick topics they find relevant to their particular team.
While contributors are unpaid to start, we do help all writers gain media credentials to games. This is not guaranteed, but we have been able to gain media access in the NFL, NCAA basketball and NCAA football.
Editorial Assistant (freelance)
Money, the nation's largest personal finance magazine, is seeking an editorial assistant. The majority (80%) of this position is editorial work — the responsibilities include following a personal finance-related beat and pitching stories on that topic, writing front-of-book articles, finding real people anecdotes for features, creating data visualizations, helping senior writers with background reporting, and fact checking.
The other 20% of the job will involve assisting our managing editor Craig Matters with administrative tasks, such as answering phones, making travel arrangements, coordinating his schedule, submitting expense reports, and helping with presentation preparation
We're looking for a self-starter with strong reporting, interviewing and writing skills. Previous business journalism experience (internship or coursework) is required.

The position is unpaid, but the production will cover your transportation costs, and offer film credits. We are looking for someone to start working with our producer in Brooklyn, New York immediately.
