Duties:

  • Carrying out research
  • Writing content for publication
  • Attending conferences, events or seminars
  • Communicating with other staff and people in the industry

Content could fall under the category of news, reviews, features, or columns. Reviews make up a big part of electronics, music, video games and movie magazines, whereas news and features are the bulk of science, academic, art and travel magazines.
