Editing Jobs

We haven't talked about employment for a while, and I ran across a useful-looking job board for all things related to editorial work. The Copyediting - Job Board - Careers / Jobs / Resumes is provided by McMurry marketing communications as part of its copyediting division. Both employers and job seekers can use the service, and you can look at the positions available anonymously, but if you register for an account, many potentially powerful tools will help your job search. Some of these include posting an anonymous resume, creating your own searches and saving them and the results, creating job alerts, maintaining resumes and cover letters in a Career Profile for an automated active or passive job search.

And speaking of searching, that section allows you to refine a search with keywords, locations, and types of jobs. Or you can just peruse the whole database to get an idea of what kinds of opportunities are available where. Don't want to be a copy editor or any kind of an editor (editing comes after writing, you know)? You can still work in the industry in business development, production, or communications, as a consultant or speechwriter, or developing web content.
