The Lincoln Journal Star is seeking a higher education reporter to cover the University of Nebraska and other smaller schools in and around Lincoln, probably including Doane College. You have to be able to break news and write compelling features.
The ad says the paper wants a reporter who can think fast and file Web posts and daily stories on deadline. It also wants someone who can produce weekend and enterprise pieces that examine in-depth the issues facing education.
The position mostly is a Monday-Friday job, but you would have to work nights and weekends as needed. The ideal candidate owns a bachelor's degree in journalism and at least two years of experience at a daily paper. But that shouldn't stop seniors from applying. You may not fit their "ideal" qualifications, but you could be the best candidate who applies.
