What are the responsibilities and job description for the Content Writer position at Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD?
Description
Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick is one of the leading public interest law firms in the United States. Our top practice areas are veterans disability, ERISA/long-term disability, and bequest management.
As the nation’s top veterans law firm, we have the largest team of VA-accredited attorneys and advocates in the country. We have argued many of the most precedent-setting cases in veterans law, protecting Congress’ intent, correcting VA regulations, and benefitting millions of disabled veterans.
Our content team publishes a huge library of free blogs, resources, and videos—the largest repository of veterans disability information outside VA itself. We seek not only to maintain the most comprehensive, up-to-date, and readable information about VA benefits on the Internet, but ensure our content ranks above less-credible sources in search engine results, for the benefit of the millions of veterans, dependents, lawmakers, and advocates navigating the complexities of VA bureaucracy and veterans law.
If you are a content writer with a demonstrable history of producing large volumes of technical or high-value content for video and/or blogs in support of a content calendar, you are welcome to apply for a position on our team. You can expect a group of highly collegial, professional, and motivated collaborators who believe in our mission, embrace change, and settle for nothing less than being the best. We expect a detail-oriented, driven, personable professional who loves making the world a better place through content.
