Greetings, Dealbreaker readers. My name is David Lat, and I'm the managing editor of Breaking Media, parent company of this fine site (as well as Above the Law and Fashionista).

The Dow may be down, but DB is up -- the site is currently receiving record traffic. And in case you haven't noticed, there's almost too much financial news to cover (though the long hours your tireless editors have been working should probably be an indication). More hands are needed on deck.

So Dealbreaker is in expansion mode. We're looking to hire an additional writer (or writers, plural, depending on the talent we come across). Might you be interested?

This is a full-time position, with standard benefits -- health insurance, a 401(k), and abuse from anonymous commenters (hold the mayo). If you're looking to transition from Wall Street to writing -- or if you're already in the world of financial journalism, but looking to try something new -- this is an excellent opportunity.

If you'd like to apply, please email us at jobs at dealbreaker dot com (subject line: "New Writer Application"). Please describe yourself and your background, and explain what you have to offer Dealbreaker. If you have a particular vision for the site or ideas for new features, do share. Feel free to include a résumé, a writing sample, a link to your own blog (if you have one), or any other information you think might be relevant to evaluation of your application.

Thanks for your interest. We look forward to hearing from you.
