The Associated Collegiate Press is seeking a freelance writer or team of contributors to develop a guide to freelance work aimed at college students with experience working in student media and who wish to pursue careers in journalism. The successful candidate will have experience in freelancing with preferred experience as a staff reporter for an established news or special-interest publication or Web site. Experience in an academic setting as faculty or advising college media is also helpful, as is experience with multiple delivery platforms.
About the project:
One component of ACP's mission is to foster careers in journalism. Given the current economic climate and the outlook for jobs in print journalism, ACP will attempt to meet changing needs among its members through a "how to" guide for freelance work. Final format will be a multiple-page guidebook distributed as a PDF file. Additional online components such as videos, slide shows or illustrations are also possible. This job is a work for hire, and ACP plans to publish this work for its members. Compensation is negotiable based on scope and complexity of project.
Timeline:
Writer selected by early April with project completed by early June.
