About this Event
Curious about where a career in journalism could take you?
Documenters Speed Dating is a fast-paced networking event designed to help Detroit Documenters and early-career journalists meet people working across the industry — from reporting and newsroom leadership to audio, audience engagement, visual storytelling, technology and more.
You’ll move through themed tables, hear how people found their way into the work and get a chance to ask the questions you actually want answered. Whether you’re exploring your options, looking for your next step or just want to meet more people doing interesting work in media, this is a space to make connections and discover what’s possible.
You’ll also be able to learn about ways to grow within Detroit Documenters, including special assignments, story pitches, guides and the Docu-Mentor program.
Bring your curiosity — and, if you’re job searching, your résumé.
