WSJ seeks Internet reporter

Wall Street Journal San Francisco bureau chief Steve Yoder sent out the following to the newspaper’s staff:

The Journal’s integrated San Francisco bureau is seeking a seasoned reporter to cover news on Internet companies for all WSJ outlets.

The reporter’s primary duty will be producing real-time news and scoops on Web companies such as Google, Yahoo, Amazon.com, eBay, Facebook, Groupon, Zynga, LinkedIn, Twitter and Yelp—and on other companies that will inevitably emerge from the primordial soup of innovation that is Silicon Valley. The reporter will work closely with other tech reporters in San Francisco and with Journal reporters around the globe.

The reporter will also generate enterprise stories on the Internet beat and on the broader technology industry, will contribute to the Journal’s San Francisco Bay Area pages and will be encouraged to identify and produce occasional aheds. Experience covering technology is a plus but isn’t required.

If you’re interested or want more information, please contact Steve Yoder or Don Clark.
