Business Insider’s editor is seeking new freelancers to work with and brilliant essay ideas. Here’s what they’re currently looking for:
- “Family Businesses: Have you started a business with a family member, maybe your child or parent? Has it been successful? Did you have to shut it down? What did you learn? What were the keys to your success?”
- “College/recent graduates: I’m always looking for stories from college students, recent graduates, or parents of college students. What is it like being a college student today? What is it like at X school? How are you paying for college? How are you saving for your kids’ college? How are you dealing with the current job market as a recent grad?”
- “Landing the job: Have you recently landed a job in this tough job market? Did you do something unique to get noticed? Maybe sent in a video cover letter? Snail mailed your resume? Worked with a career coach? What does it take to get noticed in the current job market?”
