Barron’s is seeking a fast, accurate reporter and writer who can offer insights into the biggest stories of the day, which are typically focused on U.S. equities. The reporter should write stories that deliver timely analysis—or an interesting angle—about topics that Barron’s readers are trying to understand. The ideal candidate would have a feel for web traffic and the kinds of stories that resonate online without sinking into clikbait.
The reporter will also be encouraged to write longer, deeply reported features and analytical pieces. Experience writing enterprise articles would be an advantage.
Barron’s values teamwork, and a collaborative approach is required.
