Do you want to be a journalist?
We are not going to hard-sell the job requirements. Firstly, you need a car and secondly, you need to be able to write well in English. That is it! We will teach you the rest. Obviously, if you are skilled at taking photos and passionate about your community, well, these are all bonuses and will help you get the job.
But basically, when all is said and done, if your English is good and you have your own transport, you have 80% of the basic requirements to do the job.
On-the-job training?
We will give you on-the-job training, which will include layout, photography, videography and online writing.
What does the job offer you?
A chance to meet people, become a community figure and to experience news as it happens? Working for the town’s leading sold community newspaper is a rewarding and fulfilling job.
Anything else you may need?
A smartphone would help, basically if you can watch the video below easily then you already have one…
How do I know if I have what it takes?
Apply, dummy, that’s all you need do. Send your CV to editorldy@dbn.caxton.co.za and wait for us to phone you.
