About the role

The Atlantic is hiring a curious, ambitious health-focused journalist to cover Americans’ changing health habits and wellness trends. This staff writer will explore how our desires to eat well, exercise, sleep, and resist unhealthy behaviors shape the definition of a healthy life in the United States. The ideal candidate will be skilled at parsing scientific research, reporting on policies, and interacting with influential figures, with a penchant for conceptual depth and persuasive writing.

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.
