Sports writer, Metro New York

when does Metro plan on interviewing potential candidates? What type of schedule will this position require? What does it pay?

 

Already noted by MetroNY: $28K.

Which, adjusted for cost of living differences, is equal to an annual salary of $19,815.72 where I live (or less than $400 a week).

 

oh, sorry, I didn't see the salary; I'm assuming it is a night shift, however, which means you could also work a day job ...

 

Just to update you guys:

Metro is happy to announce that we'll be bringing on Sean Quinn to fill the above position. Sean is a recent graduate of Syracuse University who has had experience with the Kansas City Star, the Auburn Citizen and KTCK-AM in Dallas.

We had a boatload of applicants and a deep pool of candidates, and I'd like to thank everyone who took time to send their information in.

Best,

Dave

 

sean - be sure to take plenty of those "free" papers with you to the alley you now call home. i hear they cut the wind.

 

Better than working in Jelenic's Jail.

 

Sean shouldn't worry--given the fact that Metro New York's circ is roughly a quarter-million, I can guarantee that more people will be reading his stuff than Petty's.

 

let those 250,000 free papers pay his rent, hence my point.

 

The people who own Metro are pretty similar to Jelenic actually.
