Investor’s Business Daily and Investors.com seek a full-time technology reporter, preferably to work in their Silicon Valley bureau (Sunnyvale, Calif.), though other locations are possible.
The ideal candidate has a strong grasp of technology issues, an interest in the stock market and knowledge of financial statements. Candidates must understand how businesses and financial markets work and be familiar with key technologies, industry players, current conditions and trends.
We’re looking for people who are thorough, know how to find information, can win access to important people and can pull telling details from them once they land the interview. We want people who can recognize the not-so-obvious stories that no one else sees.
Speed is essential to meet deadlines for the Investor’s Business Daily national newspaper and its website, Investors.com. We will provide training on using computer databases and stock charts to analyze technology companies and glean trends.
IBD operates a digital first, unified Web/print newsroom. Familiarity with Web-friendly writing principles, content presentation and search engine optimization (SEO) is strongly preferred, although guidelines and periodic training will be provided.
Investor’s Business Daily is known for innovative coverage and fact-based analysis of the stock market, economy, business, high-tech and public policy. We offer an environment that encourages and rewards learning and professional growth, the opportunity to gain first-hand knowledge of how to invest successfully, and the prime location for any technology journalist, Silicon Valley.
At least three years of relevant journalism experience is preferred, but IBD will consider other candidates with strong skills. A four-year college degree is required.
