OC3D Is looking to expand its news team! - Small monthly salary
- Thread starter tinytomlogan
- Start date
Right a BIG BUMP for a news team leader as it would appear our existing news poster has gone AWOL and has therefore been sacked.
As our news poster you will receive £100 a month salary. In return you are expected to:
1. Produce a minimum of 3 news posts a day. One of which before 11AM.
These news posts should be sourced from both your own searching of the internet, direct contact with manufacturers and keeping an eye on our news@overclock3d.net mailbox for interesting press releases.
2. Post any links to partner reviews.
These are links sent to us by partner review websites around the world. When they publish a new review they send us an email and we simply link to it on Overclock3D. The process is very simple and only takes a matter of seconds per item.
3. Be available for breaking news
Often manufacturers will come to us first with some news. You ideally need to be available (via MSN preferably) at most times during the day to post an exclusive article.
Literacy, knowledge and attention to detail are a must and you will be given training on the system before being thrown in the deep end

I believe this would mean you have access to the user control panel on the website which gives you an editor and a place to upload/resize images, add links, edit titles and everything else. Then you select to post it up on the site.

Basically what Kempy said. You'd be required to write the articles directly on the OC3D website. You will be trained - but its pretty much the same as using Word and all of the things like image watermarking are done automatically.
4-5am should be OK so long as its current news. We'd rather get today's news at 11am than yesterdays news at 4am.

You post the news in the appropriate section of the website (gfx/audio etc), so you can see what's been posted. You can also see what's upcoming and not yet put up on the site.
If you got the Job sammy you can see alot more on the front of the website than normal, theres a bout 7 reviews front page that are not visable atm.
Main thing is we can have NEWS!!!!!!!!!
You need to read the news post for the email addy Sammy

ok guys i looked for this on the forum but couldnt find any posts about it! i suppose it is like a lil application!
Eric schmidt steps down from apple board!
After three successful years with apple, schmidt has finally announced that he will be retiring from apples board of directors
with schmidt's being the chief executive officer of google, it only makes sense for him to resign from apples board of directors! as there is a conflict of interest with him batting for both teams so to speak!
schmidt commented "I have very much enjoyed my time on the Apple Board. It’s a fantastic company. But as Apple explained today we’ve agreed it makes sense for me to step down now".
i guess apple and google have seen this coming for a while now, since google is entering into a new dawn with its new mobile and computer operating sytems (not to mention google chrome!).
(message to mods!! if it is not what you are looking for very sorry!)
Also it took me 20 minutes to read up and write this article, editing spelling mistakes etc.
