TELECOM REPORTER: The recent departure of Chris Stern to an investment research firm creates an opening for a telecommunications reporter on the Financial staff. This is a newsy, high-profile beat at the center of our technology coverage. The telecommunications industry is being roiled by change and new markets are emerging every day. Cable companies are getting into the phone business. Phone companies want to sell television service. Wireless companies have grown up overnight, and many businesses are beginning to route their calls over the Internet. Big companies that once seemed indomitable, including AT&T and MCI, are being buffeted by competition. The phone itself is morphing into a device that can send e-mail, take photos, play MP3's or do a little of each.

We are looking for a reporter who can chronicle this fast-changing marketplace by taking us inside the companies and regulatory agencies that are leading the charge. We want a graceful writer, someone equally adept at producing compelling narratives and hard-edge takeouts. This has traditionally been a busy beat, with lots of news breaking at any one time, and a successful reporter needs to have a keen ear and eye for the stories that matter. This is both a hard news and enterprise beat; we are seeking a reporter who is creative both in writing and in managing time. Five years experience covering business or technology topics is preferred, but we're willing to consider others who have strong breaking news and enterprise experience.

Candidates should contact Jill Dutt, 202-334-5445, Dan Beyers 202-334-7249, Kathy Tolbert 202-334-7277 or Lisa Frazier 202-334-6752 by Nov. 19.

EDUCATION REPORTER: Education reporter for Prince William County -- This is a crucial beat in one of the newspaper's most competitive
local news bureaus. We are looking for an education reporter who can tell parents what kids are up to in the classroom, but is equally adept at
telling kids what policymakers expect of them. Prince William is searching for a new schools superintendent, who will manage an increasingly diverse
and an ever-growing district. We are looking for a reporter who can get us inside the search process and, when it's over, can provide an array of
enterprise stories about the educational challenges of the diversity and growth. The successful applicant will be able to jump all over news and
will have a graceful writing touch. Please contact Jo-Ann Armao (AME Metro), Bob Barnes (Metropolitan Editor),

Personnel) by November 5.

SPORTS RESULTS STAFFER: Sports has an opening for a full-time sports results staffer.

Sports results staffers work at night on deadline to select statistics, box scores and other data from Associated Press wires and to edit the agate and lay it out. The staffers handle the content of portions of three to six pages per night.

Juggling many duties within tight deadline constraints calls for a cool head, sharp eyes and attention to detail and style. Some editing and layout experience is desirable, though additional training will be involved. An appreciation of sports and an interest in sports statistics is essential.

This is a great position for someone who wants to gain varied experience in a fast-paced newsroom and work with a terrific staff. Nights and weekends required.
