If you think you fit the bill, write to me offlist at newswatchindia@gmail.com ASAP with (a) covering letter; (b) detailed CV; (c) a scanned photograph; (d) samples (if any); (e) expected salary (this is a new mag; so don't quote the moon; that may be one of the criteria for an earthy rejection).

Please abide by this so that your application doesn't unnecessarily end up in our spam bin.
