Mediaite is Hiring Podcast Researchers

Mediaite is looking for ambitious and energetic researchers to monitor and analyze podcasts for newsworthy moments. You would be covering the top podcasts, from sports to entertainment to politics.

If you think that you have what it takes and want to move the news cycle, then we want to talk to you.

Requirements:

– An in-depth knowledge of the world of podcasting, as well as YouTube shows and other video-based programming.

– Ability to find coverage of the topics bubbling up in the podcasting world before they have been widely reported.

– A clear understanding of how Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube user-generated content, and viral videos are shaping the news cycle.

– Strong news judgment for entertainment, comedy, and politics content and an eye for underreported content and ideas. Can you find the nugget of interest that no one else has focused on?

– This is a part-time, hourly position.

To Apply:

– Send us an email (jobs@mediaite.com) with your resume and cover letter explaining why you’re suited for the position. Please specify which area of podcasting you are most interested in (news, politics, sports, entertainment, or comedy.) If you’re interested in more than one, please specify that too.
