We're hiring! Are you our next Domestic Slut?
Do you know where the coolest pieces of design in the UK are? Can you wow us with your recipes? Do you know how to shake up a decent cocktail or seven? Then you might be what we're looking for! The lovely Gail is getting ready to have a baby, so we're looking for another writer. We keep losing our writers to little people. CAN EVERYONE STOP HAVING SEX, PLEASE?
You'll need to have excellent food writing skills as well as a keen eye for all things pretty. And if your photography skills extend to a blurry photo on your iPhone, that's not going to cut it. You need to wow us (and our readers) with something that we've never seen before. So many of the applications we get sent feature ideas for things we've already written about and they go straight into the trash folder. You do need to live in the UK and you'll definitely need to have blogging experience - they're two things that we won't be budged on.
We don't have an office so you'll be able to write at home in your slippers. We do pay for posts, but it's not thousands - you won't get rich from writing for Domestic Sluttery, but you'll be kept in enough money to buy shoes and gin each month. Most of the team do 2-3 posts a week, but there are lots of other things that are fun to get involved in if you want to.
Any other perks? Ace samples and glorious press trips across the UK and Europe. You'll also be part of the loveliest team ever. We go out dancing, we run brilliant reader events, we spend way too much time doing karaoke. At least Kat can actually sing.
Want to join us? Just send us three ideas for things you'd write about (just the ideas, not entire posts, but make sure you include one foodie piece), tell us more about you and tell us where we can read your writing. Now, we know it's Easter and we're going to be on holiday so we won't read anything you send us for ages yet. You've got until 3pm on Sunday 15th to email us. If you're shortlisted, we'll be in touch shortly after that.
Good luck, everyone! We can't wait to hear from you.
