Writing Dept Hirings

[Ciel]

Hey all. The time has come again for WCReplays to look for new writers. Have you longed for your work to be read by thousands? Do you dream of that green name and custom avatar? Well now's your chance to become a part of the site's evergrowing number of staff. Here's what we need:

DotA Writer
Think Defence of the Ancients is your game? How about enlightening some others with your knowledge and applying for the position of a DotA strategist. A DotA strategy writer should have a keen interest in both DotA and writing, and be able to explore some tactical areas of DotA which some players may not know about.

Example

Interviewer
WCReplays is also looking for an interviewer to join its ranks. Interviewers have the opportunity to quiz strong figures in the scene about everything Warcraft...and more. Knowledge of the Warcraft III scene here is a definite plus.

Example

Strategy Writer
Strategy Writers are the folks who write on Warcraft III. Whether it be theorycraft or explaining the execution of simple strategies, the purpose of a strategy article is to teach others something about the game.

Example

How to Apply

If you're interested, just send an email to [email protected] ensuring that the subject says something along the lines of Writing Application: YourForumHandle. Here's what the email needs to include:

• Your forum handle (if you don't have one, you need to make one)
• The position you're applying for
• A couple of sentences summing up why we should hire you
• A sample of your writing

The writing sample doesn't have to be relevent to the position you're applying for, though it can be if you wish. So if you want to submit a Warcraft Strategy Article or an essay you wrote recently, either is fine. If hired, you'd be expected to write at least one article/interview each month.

Finally, you should be aware that every staff member here is working on a purely voluntary basis. There are, however, small perks such as gaining access to our exclusive staff forums, getting that green name, and having your writing read by the WCReplays community.

The closing date for all applicants is <b>15th May 2009</b>. Good luck!

I hate to have to tell you this, but that money I gave you came straight from the Monopoly box.

Okay, although there's still 24 hours or so for applications to come in, I'm going to go ahead and explain what happens now. Everyone who applied will recieve an email within the next few days regardless of whether or not you're being considered for the positions so fear not; you'll be in the know. I'll also send out PMs to the forum accounts.

If anyone has any questions or queries you can contact me either through PMs on here or by email.
