Due to an unfortunate incident that will not be discussed, Yellow Fever has an exciting opportunity in our News department.

Reporting directly to the Fever Elite, the ideal candidate will commitment 10-15 mins per day, ideally in the morning, to upload relevant news articles onto the Fever site. You will need to source articles from a range of media organisations including, the Dom Post, the Herald, TV3 and others. In keeping with Fever tradition, you will also need to source a relevant pun imagine to accompany each article (see http://www.yellowfever.co.nz/news).

With a competitive salary, you have the Assistant to the Senior Intern reporting to you. There are strong opportunities to progress through the ranks of Yellow Fever. 

To be successful in this role you will be required to demonstrate the following:

  • Strong understanding of football in a New Zealand context
  • Knowing when to dismiss articles written by former All Whites that are out of touch
  • Ability to ignore clickbait articles
  • Strong punning skills
  • Daily commitment to the course
  • Prior experience working within the keys 'ctrl' 'c' and 'v'

If this sound like you, and you’d like to be part of a shambolic team who are passionate about football and image gags, you can apply by emailing your interest to Dale@yellowfever.co.nz. Please include one example of pun image for a news story of your choice.

Sourcing that pun image does require some skill and intelligence. Then there us the issue of circumventing copy right law.

Saying all that having Patrick reporting to you is probably worth the risk and aggravation.

"Unfortunate Incident" - There has to be a Women's Day or New Idea "Exclusive" in there somewhere. No Dale, not trying to stir it up. Just the way you typed that, makes for some fun responses. I don't know what may or may not have happened and I don't want to.

Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!
