MarketWatch seeks an aggressive, Web-savvy reporter who can help filter the news of the day through a single question: “What does this mean for me and my money?”
It’s what readers of every news story wonder on some level, but this reporter will focus primarily on the single biggest financial decision most people make in their lives: buying or selling a home. Every aspect of real estate is fraught with confusion, anxiety, and sometimes outright shadiness, so this reporter will need to become an expert on everything from mortgages and real estate brokers to home builders and contractors.
The ideal candidate should have at least six story ideas before breakfast, and be able to produce quick, smart analyses on both economic data releases and the latest home design trends. This is a premier beat with opportunities for major exposure, including frequent TV appearances and radio interviews. The position requires at least three years news journalism experience, experience in online publishing, strong writing skills, an interest in personal finance journalism, and a keen understanding of how to engage audiences on social media.
Please attach a resume, cover letter and three to five published clips to your online application.
