Hello!

We are looking for WEB EDITORS! We're looking for people who have a working
knowledge of HTML/CSS and prior web design experience, as The Daily Gazette
is looking to embark on some big projects over the course of the next year
or so (our ideas so far include smaller things like making a feedback
widget, redesigning the masthead, etc. but also bigger aspirations like
responsivizing design and working with photographers and multimedia editors
to make pages that look like this
<http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/01/11/travel/52-places-to-go-in-2015.html?_r=1>
and this <http://www.wired.com/2014/08/edward-snowden/>). If you're
interested in being a part of that, we'd love to have you on board! We're
also really open to your design ideas for the Daily Gazette site.

This is also a great resume builder, especially because we have an already
established viewership of thousands each day so if you're interested in a
career in web editing or design, this is one place where your work can get
a lot of views. We also use data from Google analytics to see which designs
are better and worse to help you get a feel for how to cultivate and grow
your design sense and web skills. For a formal job description, see below.

If this is something you're interested in, please contact me at
iknight1 at swarthmore.edu or our current Web Editor, Josh McLucas at
jtmclucas13 at gmail.com

Thanks,
Isabel
