Newton Investment Management is seeking a Mandarin-speaking candidate to be its next investigative research analyst. Investigative analysts utilize journalistic means and methods to conduct investment research on behalf of Newton's investment professionals.

Common Ground Committee, a nonpartisan nonprofit, inspires action on difficult issues through discussions with prominent leaders in podcasts and public forums to find common ground on which solutions can be built.

• Research and develop forum issues
• Solid research skills
• Maintain and build on existing contacts for future bookings
• Develop sources and strong relationships with potential guests in a professional manner
• Assist in all aspects of live and virtual forum productions, and video production
• Shooting MOS’s
• Meet with staffers on Capitol Hill to develop relationships

• Washington DC Congressional/leadership contacts
• Prior experience writing VO’s and VOSOTs
• Ability to cut video and create graphics a plus, but not mandatory

• Solid editorial judgment along with ability to multitask and prioritize
• Strong research and organizational skills are essential
• Past guest booking experience
• Minimum of two years of experience in journalism; production experience in digital, streaming or broadcast environment

I'm looking for a publicist who has the skills and instincts of a dogged journalist.

This would be my PR agency's first hire. So whoever gets the job would be in great position to grow their career at nearly the same rate the agency grows.

Our agency's approach to getting our clients into the news is informed by my background as a journalist.

We aren't interested in writing generic press releases. Instead, we aim to write email pitches that really grab the attention of a cross-section of journalists, from beat reporters at the New York Post to Pulitzer Prize winners at The New York Times (we've arranged a number of placements in both outlets).

Here's how it works: After signing up a client, we interview them just like a reporter would for a minimum of 30 minutes - and sometimes for multiple hours - about their business and their life.

We type-transcribe these interviews nearly word-for-word on a laptop (without using a recording device) so that we can write pitches immediately afterwards, which are distributed to thousands of top-tier journalists.

This approach has served us well so far. We've gotten our clients dedicated articles/segments in/on many of the top outlets in the country: The New York Times, NBC Nightly News, The Wall Street Journal, Slate, CNBC, VICE, MSNBC, CNN, and dozens more.
