Editor Jobs for Thursday September 24 2009
Here’s the latest round of editor jobs, hand picked from a variety of sources—but NOT Craigslist. Why bother duplicating CL when it’s already all laid out there for you to see?
Taunton.com seeks a production copy editor for its Fine Homebuilding magazine. You must be experienced with InDesign and while home building experience isn’t required, it is a definite plus.
There’s a New Jersey-based temp editor/proofreader job listed–just one of many editing gigs listed–at the creative temp agency Adecco. If you’re really in need of some work, a creative temp agency might be a good thing…
GSW Worldwide has an opening for a health editor--a fulltime position which includes the usual proofing, fact-check and accuracy detail needed for medical writing.
AOL wants an editor for its AisleDash section. AisleDash sounds to us like some kind of grocery store deal finder gig, but this is actually a wedding-themed operation. The ad mentions a “deep comittment to read weddings for real women.” We do find the lack of diversity in this ad a bit amusingly sad (after all, gay couples like to get married, too.) but we know they were just trying to get the ad running and probably aren’t interested in political hot potato-tossing.
Being avid Penn & Teller fans, we weren’t sure if we should run this, but it IS an editor job and we won’t turn our nose up at a paycheck for a hungry editor who might need the gig. PETA advertises an editor opening, but let the applicant beware, they want someone who can speak Spanish and/or Dutch. They aren’t asking much on the Dutch front, eh? Perhaps the right person could convince them to moderate the rhetoric a bit? But that’s editorializing…and this is an editor job listing.
As always, if you know of a good editor gig, please don’t hesitate to share with the rest of us!
