Do you want to apply for this freelance job vacancy?
We are seeking freelance writers to create the ultimate insider guides for selected stadiums across the US. These guides will include content about traveling to a city, lodging, local transit, and the gameday experience (tailgating, food, etc.), and all other advice that people who are traveling for sports would need to plan the best possible experiences. Want to see an example of what a completed guide looks like? https://thestadiuminsiders.com/stadium_guides/cincinnati-reds/ In order to be considered, you must live within 30 miles of the ballpark you are applying for, and have significant experience attending games at that venue. What is "significant experience"? For MLB, it's at least 7-10 games per year over the past three years. Currently available stadium opportunities: Comerica Field (Detroit Tigers) Globe Life Field (Texas Rangers) Sutter Health Park (Athletics) T-Mobile Park (Seattle Mariners) TO BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS POSITION, PLEASE APPLY ON UPWORK AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BELOW. We want to know why YOU are the right person to introduce visitors to your stadium! PLEASE NOTE: this is not a sports journalism position. We do not cover the event on the field (i.e. the game, the score, the stats, the players, betting/fantasy sports, etc.). This is a travel/lifestyle/experiential writing assignment that is focused in and around the ballpark. The expected time to complete this assignment is anywhere from 40-60 hours over the course of 4-6 weeks, depending on the stadium. Compensation is based on the total word count, plus an hourly stipend for specific content gathering (photos, videos, researching info about transit, local bars/restaurants/hotels, etc.). All expenses related to the creation of this content will be covered by the company. Total comp is typically $600-800 per venue, but varies based on the complexity of the city and stadium. Qualifications: --You must be an excellent writer! Past writing experience at any level (collegiate, post-collegiate, professional) would be great, but we are willing to consider candidates who can otherwise demonstrate journalistic or written proficiency. Please note: your resume and answers will be considered as part of the writing evaluation, and are required to be considered for this role (see below). This is your chance to sell us on YOU, and to show us that you can write! Every word, every sentence, and every punctuation mark counts, so please bring your A-game. --You do not need to be an expert in sports for this position because we do not cover what's happening on the field. But you do need to have significant experience in attending games and engaging in the surrounding environment (understanding seating, gameday options, etc.), as well as a thorough understanding of your city's travel (local airports, train stations, etc.), local transit (subway/bus/rideshare/etc.), and lodging options (not specific experience staying at hotels, but rather understanding what areas of the city fans should be staying in). --Photography and video skills: contributors should be able to capture high-quality video and photo content using their cell phone camera. You must have a phone or camera with a wide-angle lens (Android S20 or later, iPhone 12 Pro or later, or other comparable phone/camera). We can train you on how to capture better images. This is an amazing opportunity for a sports fan with superior creative writing/content skills to do something really fun. We're looking forward to hearing from you! Selected candidates will be contacted during the week of April 21st for Zoom interviews. We appreciate your patience as we consider all of the candidates that apply.
