Journalist (Full-Time / Internship)

As a member of the GamerBraves editorial team, you will be keeping a keen eye on all things happening in the games industry. Whether it’s new studios by the brightest lights of the industry or potential release dates for some of the most anticipated titles, you’ll need to be able to create coverage that is accurate, concise, and to the point – no burying the lede.

However, don’t think you’ll just be standing at the sidelines shouting out every gacha game going into pre-registration because you’ll also be reviewing some of the hottest titles, a lot of the time before anyone else gets the chance to get their hands on them.

We’ll need critics with an absolute love for the craft – with the ability to share complex concepts and break them down for the average reader, highlighting some of the best titles of the year. Naturally, your ability to keep a secret will also be mandatory – all your opinions, screenshots and more will have to have a strict adherence to any embargoes.

Some level of trend awareness is also expected as content creation is all about striking it while the iron is hot, and everything is still fresh on the boat. That means you’ll need to be able to create videos about what’s trending if you want your voice to be heard.

No need to worry about equipment because tools such as cameras, lights, microphones, and computers are readily provided for you.

This goes without saying, you will need to be familiar with Adobe Premiere Pro or its equivalent software, though knowing how to utilize mobile-based editing software is a plus.
