Publishing Jobs

The U.S. publishing industry is worth billions of dollars and offers many job opportunities. Whether you're an artist, a writer, or a manager, you can find publishing jobs you'll enjoy. This vast field covers the production of magazines, books, newspapers, online content, and more.

You'll often need a portfolio of work samples for publishing jobs. Choose your best work, including samples representing the style or subject you'll focus on at the job. Good clips also showcase your technical skills, subject variety, different techniques, and original ideas. It's fine to include work samples from your time as a student if this is the first position you'll apply to in your field.
