Dexter, Missouri - If you are creatively skilled and have a strong desire to be involved in the community, the ShowMe Times has just the job for you.  The ShowMe Time is in search of writers on both a part-time and full-time basis. 

The ShowMe Times is a local online news journal that began operations in January of 2010.  Under the theme of "Delivering Good News About Kids, People and Businesses", the ShowMe Times has worked to share that news about the good things that are going on in Dexter and the surrounding area." 

"We are in search of a special, high energy person that loves to stay heavily involved in the community," commented Alan Hedrick.  "We want someone with a special positive spirit that loves to show off other people through the pages of the ShowMe Times."

The ideal candidate should be an exception to the normal rules of employment.  To maintain their own sanity, they must be very comfortable in public and visiting with others in the community, while possessing the ability of storyteller.  The applicant should be proficient in writing and proof reading skills so that the essence of the event and people can be shared with our readers.

"In many ways, it's a crazy job," added Hedrick.  "You find yourself deeply involved with everything from sports, to rendezvous reenactments, to fairs and parades.  Wherever you are, there is a story to be written."

The ShowMe Times currently has two exceptional part-time writers in Jessica Snider and Beth Farrah.  Both are students and have shown  great talents and writing skills.  SMT is also excited about the addition of Aleshia Flowers to their part-time writing staff beginning in November.  Other bloggers and writers have also participated in helping the ShowMe Times remain current with great content for our readers.

The part-time writing positions are paid on a per article basis and therefore offer flexibility to students and those whose schedule only allow for occasional writings.  There is a limited number of positions for paid writers available.  They key to this position is consistency of weekly articles and communication between writers other writers so no one is writing on the same thing.

A full-time position is currently available at the ShowMe Times.  This is a salaried position that basically is responsible for the overall operation of the ShowMe Times journal.  This position is challenging and would involve the coordination of the part-time writers, assignments of events, management of content, writing content and working closely with our sponsors and advertisers.

The full-time position is crazy busy and very much a challenge, but if you thrive on challenges and gain energy from the battle, this just might be the job for you. 

At the ShowMe Times, we realize the content of good positive news about our kids, our community and about local business is worth the effort.  We are proud that our long time sponsors have continued to support us through these times.  We are now reaching out to our readers in search of that person that feels they can confidently move our ambitions forward and continue this worthy endeavor. 

Please email your inquiries and information to resume@showmetimes.com.  We look forward to finding  that person excited about sharing the ShowMe Times with our community.
