People ask all the time if there are any open positions at The Stranger, and there usually aren't, but there happen to be two right now: news editor and social media manager.

Plus, we just heard that the Mercury down in Portland is hiring a news reporter. If you want to work at a newspaper like The Stranger but you don't have enough experience to be an editor, that news reporter job is worth applying for. You'd have to live in Portland, but that's not such a bad town, and in many ways it's better town than Seattle. Strip clubs. Food trucks. Fewer hills.
