We’re hiring! Come work for Nieman Lab as the deputy editor Here are a few things to know before you apply. (Then, apply!) April 29, 2021, 3:37 p.m. The job posting is here, but let me tell you a few more things about it and what we’re looking for. This used to be my job, so I have thoughts. What kind of experience are you looking for? First and foremost, we’re looking for somebody who is genuinely interested in the future of news and journalism online, but who also sees this beat as a wide-ranging opportunity. Today, writing about digital media = writing about life on the internet = writing about real life, and many of the challenges confronting journalism are reflective of broader societal rifts. We’re looking for someone who approaches this beat with deep curiosity and openness, who is skeptical or even scathing when warranted but who is also fundamentally optimistic about innovation in digital journalism and wants to play a part in making this industry better and more sustainable.
