    About Us

    Across National Journal Group, generally, the firm looks for two "pillar gifts" in you, and everyone else. In all of us, these are more aspirational than actual, but they are central in our intentions -
    • Force of Ideas: At the center of National Journal Group work are the ideas within our writing. We believe that ideas - to the good and not - have consequences. Our highest work is bringing rigor, insight, intellectual honesty, to that ultimate purpose of separating the bad from the good, and giving voice to the latter.
    • Spirit of Generosity: National Journal Group seeks in its ranks a spirit of generosity - a natural disposition in each colleague toward service and selfless conduct. National Journal Group writing should be cut from the same cloth -critical on the merits but informed by charity and forbearance in measuring motive and personal character.
    National Journal is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We do not discriminate against our applicants because of race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity, sexual orientation, and pregnancy), national origin, age, disability, veteran status, genetic information, or any other status protected by applicable law.
