Here’s the kind of business-reporting opportunity that doesn’t come around often: cover Apple for The Wall Street Journal.
Apple is the world’s most valuable company, with products that inspire intense loyalty from hundreds of millions of users around the globe and a record of redefining the technology industry. But the company is not without its challenges: iPhone sales are declining, rivals in Asia and elsewhere are giving Apple real competition in the innovation arms race and the company faces a growing chorus of critics who wonder whether it has lost its ability to churn out world-changing gadgets and services.
The successful candidate for this role will be an energetic, insightful and inquisitive reporter versatile enough to write authoritatively about such a complex company. She or he should be able to think broadly about Apple and its role in the industry, economy and society, delivering stories that shed new light on all these facets. The reporter must be able to juggle multiple demands and collaborate with Journal colleagues around the globe.
This is among the Journal’s highest-profile beats, with ample opportunities–and expectations–for big-impact stories, scoops and sophisticated analysis. The position is based in San Francisco.
