What are the responsibilities and job description for the Multimedia Journalist EastIdahoNews.com Job at Eastidahonews in Idaho Falls position at Eastidahonews?
First, a little about us. EastIdahoNews.com is the #1 news website in eastern Idaho. Since we launched in 2015, we’ve had over 800 million pageviews by millions of users around the world.
We are locally owned, based in Idaho Falls and have former TV, newspaper and radio journalists working to bring the best news coverage to our audience every day.
Now here’s what we want from you. We need an innovative multimedia journalist who will break stories, develop sources, write quickly and work with other reporters in our Idaho Falls newsroom. You’ll need to have strong news judgment and excellent writing, video and communication skills.
We move fast at East Idaho News so you’ll need to be able to juggle multiple assignments while working independently. It helps if you know WordPress, Adobe Suite programs and video editing software but if you don’t, they’re easy to learn. And you’ve got to be active on social media.
Our ideal candidate will have at least two years of newsroom experience, but don’t let that hold you back if you think you have what it takes.
You’ll generally work daytime hours Monday through Friday. Occasionally you’ll be asked to cover something at night or on the weekends.
You’ll get every major holiday off, have a free family gym membership, excellent health insurance, generous PTO, 401(k) match, and every Christmas, we help a Secret Santa give away $1 million.
