About the role

The Los Angeles Times invites applications for a one-year Reporter role with The Answer Sheet, focusing on California's education challenges and data-driven progress. You will convene stakeholders, report from classrooms, and produce content for newsletters, video, and social channels. The ideal candidate has five years in journalism, strong editorial judgment, and a track record of enterprise and accountability reporting.

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.
