    OnsideKick.com is looking to expand its writing team. Specifically, we are looking for regional writers to cover college recruiting, which would include interviews with prospects, analysis, and recruiting news updates.

    If you are interested and well-qualified (former coach/recruiter, scout, or recruiting analyst), contact me at the locations listed down below.

    Thanks!

    Is this a full-time gig?

    Seeing as you have 44 articles on the front page with a total of zero comments, I'm wondering if this isn't one of those we'll-split-the-profits-with-you or we'll-give-you-a-$200-per-month-stipend type of deals.

    Either way, I wonder if this is best left to the freelance boards. If you are a legitimate operation and pay somewhat well, you'll have to excuse my misgivings. But you certainly left out a lot of information ...

    Yes, we need to know if this pays cash money. Promptly.

    From what I know, pay is roughly $35 an article (basically one article per week) paid through Elance.

    Yep - sorry. I realized after the fact that I should have posted on the freelance board but when I went to delete the original, it told me I wasn't allowed.

    We're a startup so this is definitely a "We need to start small and hopefully scale up the workload as revenues allow" type of gig. In response to the other question about whether we pay cash money, yes of course. It's not a full-time job though with benefits, if that is the question being asked.

    35 an article isn't bad, but I wonder if that is what's actually paid. Sounds more like revenue-sharing.

    And we know only Communists do that.

    Bryan,

    I used to do some work for scout.com and would be interested in working with you. If you are still looking, shoot me an e-mail at david.villavicencio@hotmail.com.
