Editor Role Description:

As an Editor, you'll come up with ideas for articles and then bring them to life. If you're a Junior Editor, you'll have the help and support of our Senior Editors, plus feedback from a peer-review process.

You'll get access to our guideline documents, special data platforms, and other resources to help you with your writing. We expect you to write at least one article per semester, which usually takes between 20 to 40 hours. But don't worry, you can spread this out over several weeks or months.

Once you've written your first article, you can collaborate with other Editors at SGFER or our partner clubs at other top universities.

Writing an article involves research into current events, companies, industries, markets, and financial products. It's hard work, but it's also a great way to build up knowledge, create a portfolio, and get to know financial markets and deepen your understanding of crucial economic concepts. Plus, you'll be part of our awesome community, with chances to join club-wide and divisional get-togethers! Check out the "Events" tab for more info.
