- Experience or qualification in blogging/journalism is a plus.
- Experienced freelance motoring journalists are needed.
- You will not be driving the Bugatti Veyron on your first day (we simply cannot stress this enough!).
- Enthusiasm for all cars and the ability to fit in with the CarAdvice culture (of fun and enthusiasm) is mandatory.
Furthermore, don’t send us your life history or a 50 page resume, click through to the contact us page and send us a brief introduction which should include what position you want to apply for (news writer/motoring journalist/blogger) and why we should consider you.

Once again you’ve proved my point Realist!
Yes would be a plumb job for sure!
Greetings Car Advice,
At first I didn’t think I met your qualifications but on reflection, maybe I do.
I love my cars. I’ve owned about 20 over the last 30 years and had a few motorbikes too. I don’t mind powerboats, sailboats, aeroplanes and pushbikes either.
I’m a qualified motor mechanic & also have higher engineering qualifications.
My writing experience is limited to being a keyboard warrior on the internet. I help run a forum http://www.carandimage.com and have written a number of road tests, product reviews and DIY “how to” articles plus a build log on a Subaru Liberty RX that I had.
Given my varied experience & background, I reckon I’d make a good fist of the position of either News Writer or Blogger.
You can contact me on 0408 403240
Sincerly
Bradley Gray
Is location important?
Subabrad…
Considering you posted your application in the comments section, i think its fair to say that “they’ll call you…”
I am only 13, turning 14 in March but would love a part time job as a blogger. Is this possible or am i too young or arent any part time jobs? Plus is location an issue or can i work from home?? I have loved cars all my life and have always wanted to do something with them career wise.

Realised my balls-up about 0.1millisecond after hitting the submit button.(where’s the “slaps forehead” emoticon?).
I’ve asked their webmaster to remove it (report post button) on 3 seperate occasions since with no luck.:(
As for them calling me – don’t plan on giving up my day job:)
