What How-To Geek is Looking For
According to them:
We are looking for freelance writers that can research products across a wide spectrum of topics—don’t worry, you’ll be researching products newer than the typewriter above—ranging from travel pillows to tablets and everything in between.
One day we might be looking at external hard drives, and the next we might be looking at bluetooth-enabled rice cookers. Is that a thing? It’s probably a thing—and if we hire you it might be your job to find the best one.
The work is freelance, with per-article or per-hour compensation depending on the position, where you set your own hours and write articles for us on your schedule. But we aren’t looking for people who simply want to write an article now and then—flexible schedule or not, you’ll need the free time to write consistently.
If you are interested in applying, You will need to meet these minimum requirements:
- You can write in coherent standard U.S. English. Think it’s silly we have to spell that out? If you read some of the applications we get, you’d put it at the top too.
- You’re creative and can come up with article ideas, workshop ideas with your colleagues, and contribute to the team culture. Further, and importantly, you can handle feedback and editorial oversight professionally.
- You must be at least 18 years old and have your own computer.
- You are good at editing images of all sorts including everything from quick screenshots to product photo touch ups—we’re all about pretty pictures and you’ll be in charge of stocking your articles with them.
