Correspondent

**Correspondent**

With around 400 journalists, Bangalore is Reuters’ 3rd largest newsroom. It is at the centre of covering real-time news on companies, commodities, and economics. Bangalore is the seat of Reuters’ company news headlines team for North America, UK, and the Asia Pacific region.
It is also the global Publishing hub for Reuters - where we curate news stories, pictures, graphics and video for financial readers. Add the fact that we cover stories on the Apple iPhone to Goldman Sachs to Pepsi to Boeing and everything in between, and you've got a bustling 24/5 bureau.

**About the Role**:
As a Reuters journalist you should:

- Be fairly comfortable with numbers to be able to cut through the corporate jargon to flesh out a top

- Write stories that are accurate, fast (we don’t report yesterday’s news), and are fair (every story has two sides).
- Have the news judgment to differentiate between news that can make or break a company and PR speak - and be able to prioritize news, analysis and views for an investment audience.

- Spot trends that can be written into big picture stories like features or analysis.

A journalist will be required to gradually develop an expertise in a sector or an asset class (Company news, commodities news, or economics). Over time, you will be required to write/package unique, analytical and forward-looking pieces for a global audience. And fight boring stories
- every day.
