The Ottawa Senators are an interesting franchise, and ready to make waves in the NHL as they return to a more competitive style of hockey. Our team at SenShot is here to cover every move as the team looks to build on its success this season. Are you ready to be a part of the future?
Have you been a Senators fan from the beginning? Were you around before the team returned, hoping and pushing for the franchise to return? Do you want the Ottawa Senators to be the first Canadian team to win the Stanley Cup since the 1990’s?
If you fit into any of those categories and you have a voice, we want to hear it. SenShot was built to provide fans just like you the platform to be heard screaming from the vast reaches of Senators Nation, and we want you to be a part of it. We are currently looking to fill a number of staff writer roles, so now is a great time to join the charge.
FanSided continues to grow and reach a broader audience daily, through our increasingly popular FanSided.com homepage and the 250+ team sites that each calls FanSided home. Our content partnership with Sports Illustrated gets our work featured at SI.com, helping to ensure that what you write won’t go unnoticed.
We’re looking for individuals who are passionate about the game and want to share their voice with countless readers. Topics are wide open and generally up to our writers, so long as they are team-related in some regard. Opinionated columns are key, provided you know what you’re talking about and can back up your opinions with relevant knowledge.
Prior experience writing in an online platform is always beneficial, but certainly not required. With a growing collection of writers within the network there is a great group to learn from, network with, and help you out along the way – making this a great place to get started if you’re an aspiring journalist, budding writer, or just simply someone looking to expand upon a hobby.
A number of our former writers have gone on to full time careers at local newspapers or national publications, with a few even landing positions working closely with the teams themselves. We’re firm believers in creating opportunities for our own here at FanSided, as every member of our network’s leadership has been promoted from within.
Think you might have some interest in joining the team or do you know someone who would? Head on over and complete our online application. You’ll be asked to share some insight into why you’d like to join us and for a sample of your writing. We’ll be in touch from there and will be happy to answer whatever questions you might have as we further discuss some of the expectations that we ask from our writers.
If you should have any questions about the roles, please feel free to reach out to timothy.redinger@fansided.com, and I will be glad to answer any questions.
