Journalists / writers for reported features for Works in Progress
We are looking for journalists and other writers to write reported features for Works in Progress.
There are a lot of important stories in the world that we’d like to cover that don’t work as our typical essays, because they require on-the-ground information and insights that only a reporter can uncover. Things like:
- Why has crime dropped so much in Washington, DC?
- What is really happening in Milei’s Argentina? What about Bukele’s El Salvador?
- Why don’t ASML and TSMC raise their prices?
The type of person we are looking for will have already published features like these at a major publication. The work will be on a freelance basis (although we may offer salaried staff writer positions in the future) and pay will be competitive with major publications.
If you’re the right person to do this, please send a hundred words on yourself and a story you’d like to cover, as well as examples of previous work, to wip-reporting@stripe.com
