App Reviewers Wanted

Oh, hello there! Glad you came by. We're wondering if you have the skills and attitude needed for an exciting writing job here at 148Apps. We're looking for app reviewers. You see, we publish a ton of reviews each week, and it's really tough for our small yet dedicated staff of reviewers to keep up with the over 4500 apps going live in the App Store during that same period of time.

That's where you come in. Who are you? You're a dedicated lover of the iPhone, iPod touch and the iPad. You eat apps for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and possibly dessert, too. You're the girl or guy whose friends and family call up when they're looking for a new app or game for their device of choice. You use the phrase, "There's an app for that," twice weekly, if not more.

You're a good writer. You know how to use a semi-colon and an em dash. You capitalize and check tenses with the best of them. You know how to build an intro paragraph and then build in the details for the big conclusion finish without sounding like a writing template. You have a solid voice in your writing, and a quirky yet generous sense of humor.

You can write quickly, and authoritatively, while still having fun. You like to play games on the iOS but also get a kick out of innovative new non-gaming apps. You can commit to a regular written output and you enjoy the challenge of the every once in a while deadline to spark your creative juices. You're comfortable with using the web to publish your words, and you've had some experience using CMS systems in the past. Email isn't a mystery, and you spend as much time on Twitter and/or Facebook as you do at your day job (hint - there's a reason for that).

Lucky for you, you want to make money at this writing thing, and you want people to read your words. We have both of those things in spades, so never you fear. We also have enough apps and games for you to fill your iOS device with that you may burst with joy. Basically, it's win/win.

If this sounds like you, we want you to come write with us. Send us the following info to help.wanted [at] 148apps [dot] com, and we'll get right back to you. Because, you know, we care.

• Your name
• Where you live (city, state, country)
• What iOS devices you use
• Why you want to write for us
• 3 writing samples, preferably reviews of the shorter variety
• Past writing experiences you have had
• Any other relevant info you want to share, so we can love you up

Thanks for taking the time to read all the way through, but really, shouldn't you be sending us an email right about now?
