As you know by now, I publish a list of job openings in newsrooms around the country because I know some of you are looking for a new environment, better pay, improved working conditions, and a boss who inspires you. All those goals are part of my #CallingAllJournalists Initiative. We should all work where we can be happy and productive AND make a decent living—not living paycheck to paycheck.
Thank you to those who have contributed to this list and will continue to do so. We only succeed together. If you have a job right now, look around and help find an opening that I can post right here.
FYI, I update this list once a month. Also, check out my September job list because some openings could be available there, too.
