Newsweek_logo.gif Who Knew?

Does 'Newsweek' Pay Its Exec Assistants $80K?

A mysterious "World Famous Magazine" is looking for an executive assistant for an unnamed "special correspondent," so sayeth The List of Craig. Candidates should apply through Forrest Solutions, a recruiting firm which has repped the likes of Random House, Time Warner, and—oh! Newsweek! Funny that. This is no Conde Nast job; they're actually putting up a decent salary, to the tune of $80K. Unfortunately, there is a catch: Criminal records will be checked, so all you would-be Peter Braunsteins out there need not apply.

    Non-Alumni Magazine Seeks Non-Alumni for Non-Alumni Editorial Positions

    02138 is not a Harvard alumni magazine--it's a magazine about Harvard alumni. If you're scratching your head over that one, then these job openings probably aren't for you:
    Ideal Canidates [sic] must enjoy the back-and-forth that comes with working on a new, ambitious publication, demonstrate outstanding literary and managerial skills, and bring a network of writers. A talent for working with and mentoring a young, bright staff with a steep learning curve also required. For some positions, a strong background in investigative journalism a plus.

Valleywag is looking for a business-savvy writer with Silicon Valley roots and/or dreams, and the deal includes a competitive salary and high visibility.

    Gawker Photo Intern Wanted

    The hive of Gawker interns has grown large enough that they may specialize in certain tasks, assuming they evolve the properly chitinous thorax. We're seeking a new intern to assist with photography, specifically original photography. This person will rarely take pictures, if ever; instead, they will assist Gawker photogs with the hairy process of sorting, uploading, identifying, captioning, and other charming tedium. In addition, this person will help oversee the schedule for events worthy of Gawker coverage. Regular contact with objectionable publicist types is all but guaranteed. Attending events to assist photogs with subject wrangling and alcohol disposal encouraged. Non-negotiable requirements: Must live in New York City. Must be adept with Flickr, competent with basic Photoshop, have at least one eye for photos, and be generally image-savvy. Must have reliable free time during mornings after events in order to help process photos. There is some small pay involved. If interested, write in with a very brief paragraph justifying your suitability to gawkslave@gmail.com.

    Gridskipper: Help Wanted, or Demanded

    Are you worth a damn? Really? Well then, how about half a damn? We grade on the curve here at Gawker Media, and filial urban travel site Gridskipper is no exception. Half a damn is comfortably passing in our book, and it's also the approximate world exchange value of an assistant editor. That's what Gridskipper desires, so if you know how to write, how to blog, how to live in the city, and how to hide in natural camouflage when G-skip editor Joshua Stein goes into one of his homicidal rage benders, this is the opportunity of your soon-to-be-attenuated lifetime. Full description here, or pitch yourself directly to jobs@gridskipper.com. And for God's sake no resumes, even if rendered in the style of Vayner. more »
