PR assistant, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

I'd be SHOCKED if it were over $40k honestly. Considering all they require is a bachelors and no amount of experience is listed, plus that there will be hundreds of resumes submitted, my guess would be $30-$35k.

 

Answer the question, not how you'd like it to be reworded.

 

i misread 93devil's post. thought he said beat writers would probably apply, so i was thinking the salary had to be a little better. i would think most asst pr people are in their 20s, don't most teams hire interns, would think they'd easily get someone that way or from the SID office at UM, USF, etc.

 

Unemployed writers who can move to Florida should be going after this gig.

This would easily pave the way to a college SID spot as well.

 

It depends on your definition of sweet. Some people wouldn't consider making $35k a year "sweet."

If you think journalists are under-compensated, take a quick poll of your friendly neighborhood pro sports PR assistant some time.

 

Yeah. Raheem Morris clicked "yes" and look how it worked out for him.

 

The link is already dead... so I assume it's been filled?

 

seriously. that's why i was thinking maybe at least 50k to be considered sweet.

 

Or maybe they've gotten enough resumes...(?)

 

If you are a 10-year beat veteran you might make more than a kid who was an intern at FIU.

I would say they would match a newspaper salary to a certain degree. What you get in return is probably better job security.

 

IS the housing market in Tampa really that tight? Can't even rent an apartment or something?

 

no it's not that tight, it's not south beach or boca. there are projects in st. pete, not far from trop. they probably would just take someone who already is living there than an outsider if all things are equal.
