National Review is hiring a political reporter to cover the 2024 presidential race and to continue covering Washington politics in 2025 and beyond.
This reporter will have the opportunity to write for both the magazine and National Review Online, filing a mix of feature-length articles and daily news updates and blog posts on the campaign. Come work with some of the sharpest writers in the business, at a publication that’s not afraid to challenge conventional wisdom and lazy narratives from either side — and to take the arrows that come with doing so.
The ideal candidate will have at least five years’ experience in political journalism and be familiar with, and enthusiastic about, National Review, its history, and its mission. This candidate will be versatile and able to juggle quick hits with more detail-oriented reporting and analysis. An ability to zoom out from the day-to-day grind of the campaign is a plus, as is a Rolodex of political sources.
Some nighttime and weekend work will be required. The position will require some travel.
Applicants should submit a résumé and a cover letter explaining their interest, along with a few clips, to editorial.applications@nationalreview.com.
Place “Political Reporter — YOUR NAME” in the subject line.
