Wanted: Staff writer in JHB

Print
Help Wanted

XG is looking to expand and requires the talent of a part time writer. The position is aimed at someone who has a flair for writing and can produce intelligible and entertaining write ups within a reasonable period of time. A good knowledge of the gaming industry is a must. It's also vital that you can attend launches and press conferences in the Johannesburg area, and it should be noted that these often fall into work hours on a Friday. These events are, however, few and far between.

This is best suited for a student or someone with flexible time. Compensation can be discussed, but primarily your compensation will be the games you receive for review.

If that sounds like something you'd like to do, then let us know via info[at]xboxgaming.co.za.

[UPDATE] We're also looking for additional daily news writers and reviewers. You can be based anywhere within the borders of South Africa, though preference will be given to those living in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
