MTV is Looking for a Few Good Vloggers

MTV is looking to hire vloggers in all 50 states to cover the campaign. This is a great opportunity to shape the youth narrative in the 2008 election cycle.

Ideal candidates will have their fingers on the pulse of issues that are important to young people in their states and be passionate about politics and the possibilities of new technology. Strong writing and reporting skills are a must. A distinctive voice and an authoritative point of view? Even better.

We'll load you up with some production gear and bring you to MTV's headquarters in New York City for orientation. In return, you will be expected to work in a paid, part-time capacity to file video, written or photographic stories weekly throughout the election year. Your pieces will be posted online and spread to mobile devices — and the top stories will be broadcast on MTV, MTV2, MTVU or MTV Trés each week.

Requirements:

• You must be at least 18 years old by December, 2007.
• You must reside in the state you are covering from January to November, 2008.
• You must have the time and ability to travel within your state and file at least one video, written or photographic story per week.

Apply Here. The deadline is September 21st.
