About the role

The Ohio State University School of Communication in Columbus invites applications for a 9-month, full-time Professional-Practice Assistant Professor in journalism. The role centers on educating undergraduates with strong newsroom relevance and flexible teaching across core courses and new programs. Ideal candidates bring current professional experience, student-centered mentoring, and a commitment to advancing writing, editing, multimedia, and sports journalism in a growing program.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
