REPORTER: The Daily Post is seeking a reporter for the night shift (noon-9 p.m.) who can cover a broad range of topics and juggle multiple stories. We want a reporter with a nose for news, who can manage their time, develop sources, is comfortable using digital resources and doesn’t give up when an official says “no comment.”
We’d expect a candidate to:
• be on top of local news
• produce clean, tightly written copy
• keep opinions out of stories and strive for accuracy and fairness
• work to get all sides of a story
• know how to file public records requests
We’re only interviewing candidates who live in the Bay Area.
Experience with InDesign and taking photos is a plus.
This is not a remote position. You’ll be working out of our office in downtown Palo Alto. Please have reliable transportation because you never know when breaking news will happen.
We prefer candidates with at least a year of reporting experience, but will consider recent graduates.
If you got into journalism to “change the world,” please go somewhere else.
Submit 3-5 clips, a resume and a brief cover letter to managing editor Emily Mibach at [email protected]
INTERNSHIPS: The Post has suspended its newsroom intern program this year.
