Get direction up front, editorial feedback throughout, and an evaluation at completion. Keep getting better at what you do. Why you'll be great for it You’re a strong writer who has written not only academic papers but also news articles, opinion columns, blogs, campaign content and/or fundraising appeals. You’re a clear thinker who can quickly get your head around an issue, sniff out a good story, give it structure, stay on-message, and plan your way from Point A to Point Z. You’re a voracious consumer of news and political content . You not only know what our network is doing, but you understand the context because you’re on top of the news on our issues, politics and the players, including other advocates and activists. You’re a student of communication . You understand how to tell stories differently in a tweet versus a 7-minute long-read, and how to make text and visuals work synergistically. You’re creative, dynamic and ambitious . You’re a firehose of new ideas. You can think your way around problems. You adapt well to changing circumstances and new developments. You want to achieve more today than you did yesterday. You’re driven to change the world . The planet needs saving, and you’re ready to help save it. You believe we can organize our lives to be healthier, safer and less wasteful, and you’re ready to do your part to make it happen. You’re looking for a calling, not just a job. Bonus points These skills aren’t required, but they sure come in handy. Design stuff: Do you know Canva? Adobe Creative Suite? Data stuff: Can you explain statistical significance and medians v. averages? Are you able to turn raw data into a chart that looks cool and communicates something meaningful? Are you a Google Sheets wizard? Creative stuff: Are you a good photographer, illustrator or videographer?
