Orlando Sentinel seeks residential real estate reporter

The business desk of the Orlando Sentinel has an opening for a journalist to cover personal real estate, including home sales and the hottest apartment market in the nation; the Central Florida banking and investment industries; and the region’s increasingly tight job market.

This journalist also will contribute to our fast-growing GrowthSpotter premium subscription site. Experience with online publishing, including shooting photos and video, is essential.

A degree from a four-year college or university and at least three years of daily journalism experience are required. Do not apply if you don’t meet the education and experience standards.

Applicants should email a resume, a cover letter that makes a strong case for why you’re the best person for the job and up to five news clips to Mark Skoneki at mskoneki@orlandosentinel.com
