Popular Science is looking for writers

Popular Science is looking for freelancers with TV and Home Theater-related reviews experience to write some product roundups, explainers, and review for Popular Science’s reviews section.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Popular Science points readers to the wonders of science, technology, and the future. A publication of Camden Media, Popular Science aims to answer the largest questions of our universe—from skunks to space robots, and primates to climates.

ABOUT THE ROLE

They are looking for all kinds of hardware and STUFF reviewers–not just tech–kitchen, home, outdoorsy stuff, apparel, etc. TVs are the PRIORITY right now, but if you have a gear-based beat and want to do some recommending, I can always use more good people.

  • Include a one-paragraph summary of your relevant experience, credentials and publication credits
  • Be sure to add your strongest clips or links to published work
