Work for us

At the Washington Square News, we believe in doing great journalism and making great journalists. We hire people of all experience levels — from students with years of experience to those just starting out. We are a teaching newspaper; no matter what your skill is, there's probably a place for you at WSN.

We are looking for writers for our various departments, which cover: all things NYU, the city, state and national news, business, sports, music, theater, film, food, technology, the LGBT community and more. In addition, our opinion section is looking for columnists who can challenge our readers.

Our video desk is always looking for those interested in broadcast journalism and videography.

We're also looking for: photographers, copy editors and fact checkers, designers, illustrators and cartoonists, graphic designers and web programmers (particularly those familiar with HTML, CSS, Flash, PHP, Javascript or AJAX).

Any NYU student interested in writing for the opinion section or serving on the editorial board of WSN should email opinion editor Ben Levine at opinion@nyunews.com to get an application.

Not sure if we're for you? Stop by our offices at 838 Broadway. We are located on the 5th floor. If you're interested in working for us, please come to our Sunday pitch meetings. They begin Sept. 5th. Feel free to sit in on as many pitch meetings as you want. Finalized meeting times for each department are below.
