Frequently asked questions

You need strong writing and editing skills, proficiency in digital tools for research and content creation, and the ability to conduct interviews. Critical thinking, adaptability, and effective communication are also crucial for remote journalism.

A degree in journalism, communications, or a related field is typically required. However, a solid portfolio featuring published work can be more important than formal education. Experience in multimedia journalism or specific subject areas can be an advantage.

Responsibilities include researching and writing articles, conducting interviews, fact-checking, and editing content. Remote journalists also need to stay updated on news trends and engage with audience feedback effectively.

Benefits include flexible work schedules, the ability to work from any location, reduced commuting costs, and opportunities to cover stories from diverse perspectives. Remote journalists can also connect with a broader network of sources and audiences.

Frequently asked questions

We use powerful scraping tech to scan the internet daily for thousands of remote jobs. It operates 24/7 and costs us to operate, so we charge for access to keep the site running.

Of course! You can cancel your subscription at any time with no hidden fees or penalties. Once canceled, you'll still have access until the end of your current billing period.

Other job boards only have jobs from companies that pay to post. This means that you miss out on jobs from companies that don't want to pay. On the other hand, Remote Rocketship scrapes the internet for jobs and doesn't accept payments from companies. This means we have thousands of more jobs!

New jobs are constantly being posted. We check each company website multiple times a day to ensure we have the most up-to-date job listings.

Yes! We're always looking to expand our listings and appreciate any suggestions from our community. Just send an email to Support@remoterocketship.com. I read every request.

Remote Rocketship is a solo project by me, Lior Neu-ner. I built this website for my wife when she was looking for a job! She was having a hard time finding remote jobs, so I decided to build her a tool that would search the internet for her.
