Business Insider: Fascinating jobs
\nBusiness Insider<\/a> is looking for pitches for fascinating jobs. \u201cI’m looking for stories to run in the weeks before and after Christmas – doesn’t have to be festive but that’d be a plus – I’m always very keen on as-told-tos about people with fascinating jobs that can really teach our readers about an industry or profession\u201d. Also, \u201cSo please do pitch me as-told-tos, especially if you’ve not pitched before – they’re the best format for freelancers as it’s a single interview, rather than something logistically more complicated that we might tackle in-house\u201d And, \u201cLastly: ‘Interesting’ jobs aren’t founders of companies that do interesting work. I mean people whose 9-5 is fascinating – someone whose day in the life is interesting, NOT someone whose stated mission is important\/unusual\u201d. See their editor\u2019s Twitter thread here<\/a> for requirements, and past examples of these stories.

DM me your pitch, and I’ll let you know if I want to read more.\u201d Also, \u201cJust a reminder, I\u2019m only reading completed pieces. I like essays with a lot of introspection. Create meaning.
