How to apply
Send us an email with the subject line “Carscoops New Writers” to info(at)carscoops.com (or just click here) containing three freshly written sample posts between 200 and 250 words each, with pictures from car manufactures’ press sites or your own shots, and/or embedded videos.
The sample articles should include at least one unique and enticing automotive-related subject (surprise us!) that will engage and entertain readers, plus a story on a freshly introduced production, concept or upcoming model.
Provide links to your previous work – Note: you still need to write the three posts, unless your name begins with Jeremy and ends with Clarkson.
The next step is to add a few lines about yourself (feel free to attach your resume) along with a list of car sites, forums and social media networks that you visit on a daily basis to get your automotive fix.
We promise to read every single word and if we think you’re a match, we will be contacting you with more information about the position. Please note that we may not be able to respond to all emails.
