Job Description:
The Wall Street Journal is looking for a reporter to cover the U.S. economy.
There's never been a more fascinating - or important - time to cover this boundless topic. Unemployment, spending and inflation data all tell us that the economy is in good shape. The people living in it say otherwise. There are countless stories to be told in this gulf between data and sentiment, stories that will help our audience cast their votes in the coming presidential election.
Labor-market dynamics, big infrastructure projects, the effects of government spending, economic-policy debates are all fair game. We're looking for a reporter who's equally comfortable analyzing reams of economic data and unearthing the people-driven stories that illuminate it. We need a sharp writer who can translate complicated and nuanced information for our highly engaged audience.
The ideal candidate is newshound who's capable of nailing big scoops and writing ambitious features. This reporter is comfortable on video and audio, and loves to experiment with storytelling formats. We're looking for someone with a solid working knowledge of financial markets, the economy's circulatory system, as well as the political dynamics that influence Americans' attitudes about the country's financial health. A desire to collaborate with colleagues in other coverage areas is a must.
The position is based in New York and reports to the U.S. Economy Bureau Chief.
You will:
To apply, please submit your resume, a cover letter detailing how you would do the job, and five examples of your best work.
The Journal's reporters, editors, developers, and audio and visual journalists create important and impactful stories, firmly rooted in fact and adhering to the highest ethical standards. We report without fear or bias, and we maintain a proper sense of perspective, detachment and objectivity in our reporting.
