The posting

HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS REPORTER   The Buffalo News seeks an industrious, curious and digitally focused reporter to cover high school athletics for an APSE Triple Crown-winning sports department.   Qualified candidates will be able to juggle daily assignments, features, trend stories and bigger-picture enterprise – all while developing relationships with sources in the area. Experience in breaking news, working with data and open records, and a robust social media presence are preferred. The ideal candidate will also be comfortable with vertical video and working in front of the camera. Nights and weekends, of course, come with the job.   The position emphasizes quality and quantity with approximately 85 schools in our area, but we want more than just daily game coverage. The reporter should work with urgency to find stories that transcend particular teams and strike a chord with the community at large.  The reporter should also be fluent in social media and other platforms, including Instagram, Hudl, TikTok, X, Facebook and/or Reddit, and be able to use them as a newsgathering tool.   The Buffalo News is an award-winning news organization with the largest staff of journalists in upstate New York. We have a history of breaking the area's big stories and investing in the stories that matter.   We strive to hire talented and dedicated people who reflect the diversity of the communities we serve. People of all backgrounds and experiences are encouraged to apply.   Why Buffalo? The region is a lot more than chicken wings and snow. The city has seen a resurgence that makes it an exciting time to work and live here. Aside from professional sports teams, the city has a philharmonic, a growing waterfront, a burgeoning medical campus and plenty of attitude. Not to mention Niagara Falls, beautiful hikes and ski slopes all within a short drive.   Applicants should submit a resume, cover letter and five clips that show their range of reporting and expertise. Lee Enterprises offers competitive wages in a dynamic, interesting work environment with career growth opportunities.  We offer an extensive benefit program that can be personalized to your needs. Our benefit program includes medical, dental, vision, short and long-term disability, company provided life insurance and supplemental life insurance. In addition, we offer a 401K retirement plan with company match.  We also offer generous paid time off to allow flexibility to balance personal life and work.  This includes paid parental leave for new parents.   Lee Enterprises is a leading provider of local news and information and a major subscription and advertising platform, with daily and weekly newspapers and rapidly expanding digital products serving 114 markets across 25 states. Our core commitment is to provide valuable, intensely local news and information to the communities we serve.   Lee Enterprises is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We respect and celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.   For more information about Lee, check us out at www.lee.net.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
