JournalismJobs.com - Job Listing - Two openings for sports reporters

SPORTS REPORTERS – IMMEDIATE OPENING! Report on sporting events at night and play by day in the outdoor recreation wonderland of the Rocky Mountains of Northwest Montana. A perfect job in a near-perfect place. Glacier National Park, two ski areas, a million acres of wilderness and more than 100 lakes, including the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi are at your doorstep!

We have two jobs currently open with an emphasis on sports reporting.

The Daily Inter Lake, Montana’s fourth largest daily newspaper, located in Kalispell, has an opening in our three-person sports department. Our county is the size of the state of Connecticut, and we cover 10 prep schools as well as an assortment of additional sporting events. Some outdoor writing may also be available. The typical shift is Tuesday through Saturday from 4 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. but the department rotates schedules on occasion to keep the Sunday and Monday shifts filled. Sports reporters also doe layout on various shifts.

We also have a current opening at the Hungry Horse News in Columbia Falls, just a few minutes from Glacier Park, for a general assignment reporter who will focus on sports. Some layout experience is helpful, but will train.

In addition to the benefit of our spectacular location, we offer a great health-insurance policy, optional vision and dental insurance, a 401(k) plan, and paid vacation and sick time.

Please send a cover letter, clips and design samples by e-mail to Managing Editor Frank Miele at edit@dailyinterlake.com. The top candidates will be contacted for further discussion, and finalists will need to have a clean driving record and pass a post offer, pre-employment background check and drug screen. We are an Equal Opportunity employer.
