Project description: Law Writer
We are looking for several talented writers to write for JDOasis. (www.jdOasis.com)

We ask that you commit to a minimum of one post (400 word min.) per week and a minimum of 8-10 weeks. More details will be provided during the interview process. We are also open to guest-writing possibilities if your schedule does not allow for a regular writing schedule.

Skills/requirements:

• Professional in the law (or similar field) industry (this is preferred, but not required)

• Fluent in English.
• Knowledge of what JDO is all about (ie study our "About us" page).
• Can commit to at least 1 post per week (400 word minimum) or give me 24 hours notice if you are going to miss a post.

Tangible Benefits for you:

• A digital record of your writing ability and law expertise on a growing website, while developing writing/research skills.
• Huge opportunity to be part of the next Wall Street Oasis by helping us build it from the ground up.
• Great experience to help supplement your resume
• Ask for career advice from practising professionals in the industry
• Learn about SEO through company-wide conference calls
• Patrick (CEO of WSO) will be happy to assist you with your career in the future - i.e. give recommendations / referrals etc. Will also write a letter of recommendation at the end of internship.

Intangible benefits: - i.e. what you will learn

• Potential for your posts to be promoted to the homepage and visible to a wide audience, which will grow larger as time goes on.
• Great networking opportunity - we encourage interns to engage with the community and also you are free to post your personal contact information (LinkedIn, email, website/blog url, etc.)

To apply: please email me at [email protected] and attach your resume, and the answers to the following questions:

• Your current professional status (working, grad student, etc)
• A brief rundown of your experience with law (what is your expertise)
• What do you want to write about?
• A confirmation that you meet the aforementioned skills/requirements
• Your current availability (how many posts per week and for how many weeks) you can commit to

After you apply I will respond asap to set up a Skype/phone call with you to discuss the project.

Thanks,
