Monster – the global leader in connecting people to jobs – is looking for an innovative digital writer/editor to help shape our coverage of topics that matter to job seekers. The ideal candidate will have experience creating high-quality, actionable content for a major media outlet.
On a day-to-day basis, you’ll stay on top of the issues and trends that are key to America’s workforce – from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ monthly jobs report to emerging resume formats to the latest offerings in office cafeterias – and help decide how to translate these topics for Monster’s audiences.
You’ll be expected to produce daily articles – how-to content, news, UGC and social media-driven. You should be comfortable reporting from a journalistic approach, but also to aggregate responsibly from around the web and from our own site.
You’ll be expected to think beyond the vanilla article to video, infographics, quizzes, GIFs, podcasts and more. You’ll be primarily a writer, but up to 30 percent of your workload could include editing the work of outside writers.
You’ll also have a key role in the bigger picture: As we redefine our content strategy, editorial voice, and UI to maximize audience engagement, traffic, branding, and revenue, you’ll be asked to think creatively about new ways to engage our audience, both as a whole and key segments.
Plus, you’ll also be tasked with thinking about what people and assets inside and outside the company can be leveraged to best achieve our corporate goal—which is to help people “find better.”
