ChicpeaJC is continuously expanding. In the next couple of months we will be adding new and fresh content to the website. That is why we are looking for new contributors who have specific knowledge in various areas (all JC related of course)

We are looking for the following topics to be covered

1. Nightlife (bars, drinking, clubs etc…)
2. Music (Specifically Hip Hop, R&B, Soul, Funk)
3. Sports (Jersey City)
4. Relationship & Dating
5. Lifestyle
6. Food (you will be assigned the restaurant/food spot) must have food blogging experience
7. Art
8. Have a topic not listed? Email us!

Qualifications:

1. Great writing skills.

I know my writing isn’t always the best, and I am working on getting better, but I am still seeking those who have great writing skills!

2. Must live in Jersey City.

This is kind of an obvious one, this is a Jersey City blog, so I seek people who live here!

3. Positive attitude.

ChicpeaJC is not a news outlet; we are not art critics, food connoisseurs, etc. All articles must be positive. My mom always said, “If you have nothing good to say, don’t say it”.

4. Can commit to 1 article a month

That’s it! Just one post a month! Easy peasy.

5. Have social media knowledge.

Must have Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Part of blogging is also sharing your posts on social media.

6. Must be familiar with this Blog!

I am serious! last time people applied that had no clue what this blog was about! You  must be familiar with our content, how we write our blog posts etc. I will test you.

Compensation

As a starting point, if your article gets published you will get $50. This isn’t much I know, but it is a starting point. We are hoping to increase the amount in the future as the website grows.
