You do have "equivalent professional experience" just link them to your site.

I have professional experience, but I don’t know if I have “equivalent professional experience.” I mean, I guess I could apply for shits and giggles.

Sure you do. You write about sports on a website. They want people who write about their sport on their website. English is your native language and one of the gazillion things you study is communications, so one can assume your grammar is more than excellent. You've got 0 to lose and the whole thing is from home.

 

Starting opportunities don't get more perfect than this.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Fair, I guess I have labeled myself as “the grammar hammer” in the past. Y’all are really pulling for me :d

No, on Totallympics you often seem to be someone who doesn't much care about grammar or correct spelling of names and then brushing it aside with "I know it's wrong but I'm lazy" (even though a quick Google would be faster and less energy-consuming than explaining that you're lazy), but I have no doubt in a less informal situation than an online forum this is not an issue :p

Yes, that is correct. What write how I talk on here. I also really just don’t care about grammar mistakes if it’s not for a published statement.

One job is in Germany and the other is a 5-minute walk away from a train station I can reach with a pretty short and easy direct train connection. No thanks :p

I’m a sucker for international sports jobs. I’d fly to fricken Nauru if the NOC offered me job :p

    • 6 golds, 1 silver, and 1 bronze for  overall 
    • I simply believe that at the age of 36 she will no longer be in her peak form, and only such form would allow her to fight for medals. And Schulting will also come... On top of that, she plans to combine short track with speed skating? I don't see that at this age. As of today, I see the greatest chances for her in 2 relays and a mass start on a long track.
    • ISU World Tour 2024/25 -  Montréal (Stage 2/6)   Men's 5.000m Relay:   01.  Canada 02.  South Korea 03.  Italy
    • Give her some time. I think she will grow into the season and seeing how many different skaters already have won medals in the first two weekends of the season, I don't see why Fontana couldn't be one of them. She's been incredibly close this weekend with two A-finals in her first event back.
    • Finish of the men's 5.000m relay B-final:  
    • I hope Fontana will start competing in the mixed relay, because there Italy has a real chance of winning a medal with her great start.
