Thank you for your interest in working for The News-Gazette, Inc. 

The News-Gazette, Inc. is a service organization that provides information to the public in the form of newspaper and online publishing and radio production.  Our companies have established themselves as the primary information sources for people who live in East Central Illinois.  We have nurtured that distinction for more than 150 years, and intend to maintain it. 

The News-Gazette, Inc. companies are special places to work.  The employees understand that each job contributes to the objective of providing accurate and timely information to our neighbors.   Each employee has an important role in our day-to-day success. For each day we are successful in achieving our mission, we ensure ourselves the chance to do it again tomorrow.       

The News-Gazette’s founders were committed to maintaining the independence of the paper and radio stations, keeping a local voice for the communities we serve.  The current Board of Directors has embraced the legacy of our forefathers and has pledged to keep the companies independent – an important distinction from most other media organizations.  The News-Gazette companies, in order to maintain their independence, must remain profitable, honorable, helpful and trustworthy.  Employees, no matter what role they play, are expected to do their part in meeting those organizational expectations. 

To that end, we expect employees to meet some basic requirements when it comes to performing their jobs, such as: take care of customers so that there is never a service complaint, do your work correctly and with pride, and behave in a way that is helpful to the organization and its customers.  When all employees complete their assignments correctly and on time we will meet our customer’s expectations.   

In return, The News-Gazette, Inc. offers employees a good hourly wage, generous benefits, and supervision to help you with the tools you need to perform your job successfully.   

We appreciate your interest in working for us.  Please thoughtfully consider whether you are willing to make the commitment to meet the expectations of the organization, and if you are, complete the application below.
