The Liverpool Tab is on the lookout for brand new writers – and we want you!

Yes, you heard that right. The Liverpool Tab is in its recruitment era again, and we’re looking for brand new writers to join our team this February!

Run entirely by students, and written with students in mind, the stories we produce here at The Liverpool Tab cover everything you need to know about campus life. With no experience necessary, it’s a perfect addition to your CV and the best way to spice up your week as a student.

What’s not to love?

It doesn’t matter what course you currently study, or if you’ve never been involved with journalism before. As long as you’re a student at one of our incredible universities here in Liverpool, you’re more than welcome to join our team.

If you’re a sucker for updating your LinkedIn profile, currently searching for opportunities to gain more experience, or just love the creative side of writing and journalism, then becoming a Student Contributor at The Liverpool Tab should be right at the top of your resolutions list for the new year.

As a writer for The Liverpool Tab, you’ll have the chance to break the latest on-campus news before anybody else, write features about your favourite places in and around the city, and make friends for life at our weekly meetings and socials.

And there’s no pressure at all when it comes to writing stories.

This is the type of work experience employers love to see you take on, and the best part? You can do it all from the comfort of your own home, or even your bed if you fancy it.

If this sounds like a bit of you, then come on down to our open meeting on Monday 3rd February at 6pm in The Fly on Hardman Street.
