The Sioux City Journal, a 40,000-circulation daily newspaper in western Iowa, is looking for an education reporter. The right candidate will be able to "craft compelling education features and enterprise" as well as explain complex school budget issues. The paper covers several school districts, three small colleges and the University of South Dakota.
According to its ad, the ideal candidate will have experience with blogging, social media, multimedia and other online tools.
The paper requires one year of reporting experience, but I'd urge current seniors to apply anyway. Exceptions can be made, you know.
The paper wants you to apply online. You may also send a cover letter, resume and samples by e-mail to Editor Mitch Pugh or by snail mail to Pugh at Sioux City Journal, 515 Pavonia St., Sioux City, Iowa, 51102. He will not take phone calls.
