AOL City’s Best is looking for New York writers to investigate the best local online dating options for a possible weekly column to launch around Valentine’s Day. You’ll be signing up for accounts on sites like Match, OK Cupid, Nerve and How About We, going on dates, and then telling our readers about them. We’re looking to give an idea of the experience offered by each site – what it’s like to set up a profile, the profiles you come across, and the date ideas that get proposed – and then dish about the actual dates you go on. If you’re a shy person, this isn’t the right gig for you.
We’ll pay you a rate per story and cover your expenses. Please send us a note explaining why you’re the right man or woman for the job and some clips that show off your voice as a writer.
Location: NYC
Compensation: per assignment
