Registration is now open for the 2012 Career Expo at Columbia School of Journalism.
Join us on Sat. March 24, 2012 in New York City. This event is an opportunity to meet promising new journalists for your newsrooms. If you plan to attend, we encourage you to register soon to guarantee a space.
Alternative weeklies have become the medium of choice for our magazine concentrators and many of our Master of Arts students. They know that the alts will give them the chance to work with editors who care about deep reporting and writing style. Our magazine concentrators receive training in basic multimedia, social media and long-form narrative, and many develop investigative reporting skills as well. Our digital media concentrators are adept at multimedia storytelling and production; other students discover their voice as bloggers.
Even if you don’t have jobs or internships now, this is a chance to meet candidates for future positions. It’s also a chance to spread your paper’s brand, network with other editors, and demonstrate your commitment to journalism education. For these reasons, several national media organizations have already signed up including NPR, AOL, Fox News, Sports Illustrated and Audubon magazine.
