Re: OS is seeking new staff writers!

MMChrisS,

Just wondering about how long we have to compile this resume? I've honestly not put together a true "resume" for writing and would like to compile a decent one with links to my blogs and the like.

Even if the topic isn't sports gaming, are you just looking for samples in general to see writing style and ability, or should I take the time to write sample sports gaming features?

Extremely interested in the position, so I don't want to put together a weak application. This is one "job" I truly want, so thanks for any further information you can give me.

This completely got lost on my feed for some reason. But responding to this: you have until the middle of this week. We're making our decisions then.

I am extremely passionate about journalism, sports, video games and blogging. It seemed like a good fit to me.
I'm confused.

How can you be extremely passionate about journalism and blogging if you have no writing experience?

I doubt I'd be able to get a professional level resume/portfolio compiled by then, but I'll be on the lookout for the next opportunity.

Thanks.
