Which ATS platforms does swipeandhired support?

All of them. swipeandhired applies on every applicant tracking system (ATS) employers use, including Workday, SmartRecruiters, Greenhouse, iCIMS, Lever, Ashby, Taleo, SuccessFactors, Oracle Cloud and Jobvite, and on a company's own careers page when it uses none of them. You can also bring any posting yourself by link or pasted text.

Is my data used for training AI models?

Our platform AI provider may use the content we send it, your profile and the job posting, to improve its models. We never sell your data. If you bring your own AI provider key, requests go directly to your provider under their terms.

JOB DESCRIPTION
The news team at FOX 26 and FOX Local Houston is transforming how local news is gathered and delivered. We no longer wait for appointed times to deliver content. We're a 24/7 STREAMING FIRST news organization.
As we continue to evolve, we’re hiring a News Anchor for our top-rated morning news block. Our next anchor will bring the passion and skillset to create and deliver live and unscripted content across streaming programs and platforms, digital news sites, social media and on linear TV.
In this role, you’ll anchor 3-hours of morning news from the studio and then transition to anchoring streaming programs from our redesigned newsroom during the remainder of your day. For streaming news shows, you’ll be responsible for operating our Tricaster switcher, while disseminating live and breaking news in a raw, unscripted format with no teleprompter.

Here’s what you’ll need to be successful in this role:

A streaming and digital first mindset, that has evolved beyond traditional TV news constructs. You’re as comfortable and skilled delivering unscripted content as you are with a teleprompter. You bring the same enthusiasm to your delivery and on-air performance regardless format, studio environment or platform.
You ditched the “anchor voice” long ago and you’ve mastered a more authentic style of delivery that doesn’t rely on a teleprompter. We don’t use teleprompters in our streaming news programs.
You have experience and skill anchoring continuous live breaking news events and severe weather such as hurricanes, tornado outbreaks and winter storm coverage. This experience and skill are evident on your reel.
You’ve spent a minimum of 3-5 years in the field as a news reporter, covering big news stories, honing your journalism, polishing your on-air performance and proving that the best anchors have built a reputation as aggressive, successful reporters.
You have experience field anchoring big news, demonstrating a range of skills from hard news and politics to sports and community events.
You are a leader in the newsroom, with a demonstrated track record of mentoring younger reporters, helping them become better storytellers and writers.
You are an engaged copy editor, carefully reviewing and signing off on scripts before they go on air. You provide constructive feedback and actively participate in the editorial process.
You have impeccable journalistic ethics and integrity. You can spot problematic copy, flag stories that need more vetting, unearth biased narratives and make sound decisions under deadline pressure.
You’ve already created a significant social footprint across Instagram, TikTok and Facebook. Your content is rooted in news, not selfies and vacation photos.

You must have significant experience as an anchor, on top of 3-5 year of experience as a reporter in a professional news operation. Candidates who have experience hosting unscripted, live news streaming programs will move up the list. This is not an entry-level position or a position for candidates who do not possess a journalism background.
We’re a 24/7 news operation, so you must be able to work non-traditional hours, weekends and holidays as needed.

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, gender identity, disability, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law. We will consider for employment qualified applicants with criminal histories consistent with applicable law.

Pursuant to state and local pay disclosure requirements, the pay rate/range for this role, with final offer amount dependent on education, skills, experience, and location is $160,000.00-170,000.00 annually. This role is also eligible for various benefits, including medical/dental/vision, insurance, a 401(k) plan, paid time off, and other benefits in accordance with applicable plan documents.
