Thank you for your interest in the Reporter/Producer position at Tradeoffs.

Please complete this application and upload your resume. You do not need to submit a cover letter. The application asks questions about your work experience and includes a request to share links to two examples of your journalism. It is intended to take the place of a cover letter and screening call.

After reviewing your application, we will contact you to schedule a first interview if we’re interested. After the first interview, we’d ask you (and pay you) to do a short work exercise (a trial run of the actual job experience). The final step would be a second interview and references, if requested.

Applications will be accepted through 11:45pm ET on October 19 and will be evaluated as they are received. We will contact you by email if we are interested in interviewing you. To ensure fairness to all candidates, we don't do informational interviews for open positions.

If you experience any difficulties with this application, please reach out to jobs@tradeoffs.org. Thank you again for your interest in working with us.
