-------------
We are currently looking to hire a writer/editor for our celebrity and popular culture blog Celebrity Milkshake. Applicants should obviously have a taste for celebrity life and Hollywood nonsense, or at least enough interest to be highly sarcastic while still doing some actual reporting. If you didn't already know Lindsay Lohan was going through a lesbian phase, please don't bother applying.
This position should require only a few hours each day Monday through Friday, possibly working on and off throughout the day sometimes. On average you will be expected to post 3 to 5 articles daily, depending on the amount of relevant news available and the complexity (1 brilliant article is better than 4 boring articles). You will be working under a managing editor who will provide direction and contribute stories, but your voice will be a prominent part of the site's personality.
We'd much rather work with someone who has a vested interest in the site, as we've found those who get paid per-post often leave us feeling uninspired with their quick, hollow writing. You will be paid on a revenue share basis, earning 35 percent of the site's profits. This means you won't make as much money at first, but have the potential to earn a lot more in the long run.
Qualifications & Requirements
To apply for this position, please send an e-mail to jobs@intercraze.com with "Celebrity Blogger" for the subject and include the following:
1. Name, age, and location.
2. Why would you be good for this job?
3. Education and/or relevant experience.
4. List your three favorite celebrity or entertainment blogs.
5. What are your favorite non-celebrity blogs?
6. What is your schedule like? Are you working another part-time job or are you a college student? For the right person, we're willing to accommodate your schedule if you can't work on Wednesday mornings, for example.
Applicants who make the final cut after a phone or e-mail interview will be asked to provide two or three sample articles that would be appropriate for the site, or a past writing sample.
