Do you love Hip-Hop? Do you have time to spare? Do you love dishing the scoops, researching news stories, scouring the Net for all things Hip-Hop-related? Do you want the satisfaction of knowing you helped the Hip-Hop community (and got net fame in the process)? If so, you may just be the ideal candidate to help fortify our HIPHOP NEWS SECTION (the section that you are in right now), so take a look at the requirements below and see if you're ready, able and wanting to join the StreetHop.com team.

Position: News Writer

What is it exactly
? You would be in charge of finding, writing and putting together hip-hop news stories every day of the week. The person we hire will be asked to search the Net for scoops and news, put them together in an entertaining and informative manner and post a MINIMUM of 2-3 stories a day.

Do I need to be living in a certain area to get this job? Not at all. This job is open to anyone from any country.

How much does this job pay? StreetHop.com is an independent news source and thus we do not make any profit. Sorry but we are unable to pay in monetary means. However, you will get benefits such as left over merchandise and the possibility of press passes to local events, and the chance to display your writing skills to the world (close to 10,000 unique readers a day). This will look great on your CV/resume. You will also receive an extra cool new email address which ends in @streethop.com and plenty of respect and admiration from our community and the online Hip-Hop community in general (read: webcam sex with hotties all over the world).

What is required of this post?

  • You must be serious about your application and the vacant position.
  • You must be an excellent writer, bar-none. If you send us an email with spelling and grammatical errors, it will not be considered. Our kind of humor helps as well, but professionalism is most important.
  • You must have basic WORD-like skills since they are required to enter the stories into our system. No elaborate skills, just the basics (bold, italic, etc), but you also need to have some Photoshop experience as you would need to crop and insert pictures into your stories, etc...
  • You must be able to commit to this job for at least a period of 6-12 months.

How do I apply?


Send me a direct email at info@streethop.com titled NEWS WRITER and include in it why you think you would be ideally suited for this post (you gotta really sell me with shit to back it up as as well!) MAKE SURE COVER ALL OF THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS!

Also, include your full name, age, resume (if you've got one), geographical location as well as a few writing samples, preferably short news stories in the same vein as our articles here. Don't write me a fuckin' book though or send me your English term papers. Furthermore, if you've already worked on any other website, please provide us with the required URLs so that I could check those out as well.

EMAIL ME AT INFO@STREETHOP.COM


Good luck!
