Copy editor/designer at Savannah Morning News

The Savannah Morning News is looking for a copy editor/page designer. You would work on the universal desk with shifts in sports. I work at the SMN now and have a few days a week on sports, with shifts on the front page, local and business sprinkled in just to give you all an idea. I've worked here for a little less than a year now and have nothing but great things to say about the people who work here and the city itself. Anyone interested can contact Libby Roerig (copy desk chief) at elizabeth.roerig@savannahnow.com or Anita Hagin (assistant managing editor) at anita.hagin@savannahnow.com.

If you have any questions, feel free to message me.

 

I'm a former desker here. Questions? PM me.

 

I interviewed for a similar job at the SMN a couple years ago when I was looking to move down into the Coastal Empire. Didn't get the job (c'est la vie), but did have a pretty positive experience. It was a day-long interview -- sat in on budget meetings, did various tests, taken out to lunch by a couple guys on the sports crew, etc.

The SMN headquarters are a regular palace compared to some of the other newspaper offices I've been to. Front lobby is decorated with wrought-iron gates to emulate the downtown area.
