Newspaper Seeks Geek For Long-Term Relationship; No Free Soda
News organizations that are finally realizing how important it is to have talented developers to build cool things for their websites are suddenly all participating in a “talent grab,” reports Betabeat. Among those hiring hackers are the Washington Post, the Boston Globe, the Chicago Tribune, the NYT, AP, WSJ, Newsweek and the New York Observer.
Yeah.
Oh, and every job on this spreadsheet. Bear in mind that these are highly technical positions and that the newsrooms are likely going to find a hacker who can learn journalism rather than a journalist who can be taught how to hack.
So some of the listings, meant to entice these folks away from fast-paced startups or prestigious web operations like Google, are kind of funny.
