The job is almost nothing like this photo, but it came up in the stock photo search so whatever.

The Tucson Weekly is hiring a staff writer and GOSH THAT COULD BE YOU. Basically, we need someone who can contribute content to the Weekly, print and online, across the wide variety of subject matter we cover here. Plus, we need someone who isn't boring, who gets alt-weekly style. Someone who can write a well-researched cover story and a clever blog post about a YouTube video. We just want it all, is that too much to ask?

Read over the qualifications below and if you think you're up for the challenge, send me (email address at link) a cover letter, your resume, and three clips of your previously published work.

MINIMUM POSITION QUALIFICATIONS

Education: Bachelor’s degree, preferably in journalism
Experience: Experience as a freelancer or staffer at professional media outlets, preferably in the alternative newsmedia realm with clips that demonstrate reporting and writing proficiency.
