The Fulcrum team, 2023-24.

We’re Hiring!

Student press is often the first step in many budding journalists’ careers. Fulcrum alumni have gone on to work for organizations such as the Toronto Star, the Globe and Mail, The Guardian, CBC, Radio-Canada, Maclean’s, Politico, IndigiNews, iPolitics, MoneySense, and more.

We are hiring for 14 positions, see individual job postings below for each contract’s remunerations. The deadline to apply is Friday, May 31st. Please submit a resume, cover letter, platform of your vision for the section (for editor positions), and two unedited writing samples or a multimedia portfolio to [email protected] and [email protected].

Due to the nature of the positions, successful applicants will be required to live in Ottawa from
the start of their term to the end to attend possible in-person events.

Applicants who submit a complete and competitive application will be invited to partake in a two-part test which will test them on basic knowledge for the respective positions as well as their editing skills for positions with editing duties. Applicants must receive 50 per cent or higher on each test in order to be considered for an interview.

Applications for the editorial board have now closed.
