Writing 15+ value add pieces per day? 75+ value added pieces per week? Hopefully this isn’t really a shop looking for quality but rather just SEO scalping. How can someone possibly put reseasonable diligence into 2 stories per hour? I’ve done lots of financial journalism, independent research and what not over the years and unfortunately this is what it has become.

Maybe they just plan on spamming Seeking Alpha.

I didn’t see the part where the compensation was limited to lunch reimbursement…

send resume to @overseasdreamteam.com ???

How much money?

I see lots of these postings at $5/article, so maybe $75/day. Yeah. No kidding. This is why I don’t do much writing anymore, its a waste of time sorting through all the crap to find the few deals that pay appropriately. But probably some kind of SeekingAlpha spam move for sure.

Work from home, yet must be based in India, for a US co.? Yeah, you aren’t trying to appeal to the millions of indians on here with crushed hopes of making iin ER.
