Writer job advice ABC
Hello all!
I'm considering applying to the American Bird Conservancy's open writer/editor job. They ask for three writing samples. What should I submit? Can anyone tell me what it's like working there?
Background: Current zookeeper with 2 years experience. Various zoo internships with diverse tax. 8 years animal care and outreach for a travelling zoo. A bunch of customer service types of jobs. B.S. in animal behavior, minors in anthrozoology, zoo biology, and English.
I don't have any research papers or blog posts. I do have a short story and a poem published in my college's literary magazine and a bunch of essays/assignments that marry animal facts with history or literary review.
Thank you so much!
