Today: Advertising across Hearst's newspapers and TV stations (site: "35 television stations; 30 daily and 50 weekly newspapers")
Roles: Dallas/Newspapers: Sales · Newspapers: Sales - Account Executive · Account Executive
Requirements mention: winning new business · growing existing accounts · integrated campaigns · AI-enabled technology · all available platforms · TV and web
Inference: the Dallas Morning News and Times Union sales postings share identical wording on multi-platform solutions and AI-enabled technology. WDSU TV's Account Executive posting also describes multi-platform marketing solutions. Together this suggests ad sales that bundle print, digital and TV, with AI-enabled sales tools.
Today: Local TV newscasts and newspapers (site: "delivering important service and investigative journalism")
Roles: Anchor Reporter · Business and Education Reporter · 2025 National Hearst Journalism Fellowship Program
Requirements mention: live reporting · enterprise exclusives · public records requests · accountability reporting
These read as staffing for existing newsrooms (KSBW TV in Salinas, CA; The Telegraph in Alton, IL; Hearst metro papers). No new direction is read from them.
Today: "CareProminence solutions, technology that provides critical insights from member enrollment and maintenance" (Product Owner posting, Medhok)
Roles: Product Owner
Requirements mention: SAAS products within healthcare · Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO)
Only one role names this product, so no direction is read from the postings.

Of 69 open postings, 49 have TEST, UAT, SIT or TEMPLATE in the title and several others contain placeholder text. All 9 Home Office postings and at least 5 of CDS Global's 8 are tests, so department and location counts mostly reflect applicant-system testing, not hiring.
Seniority: The counts show 39 roles with unknown seniority, 17 junior, 8 mid, 2 manager, 2 director and 1 vp, but most of these are test postings. The real-looking roles lean toward entry and mid-level operations, newsroom and sales jobs.
Skills named most: Microsoft Office, Excel, LinkedIn Recruiter, applicant tracking system (ATS), full-cycle recruiting, live reporting, demo reel, mobile transmission devices, public records requests, media or digital sales, Agile Product Ownership, HRIS
Locations: The location counts are TBD (23), New York, NY (6) and Des Moines, IA (5). No postings are marked remote. Because most postings are tests, these counts are not a reliable guide to where Hearst is hiring.
If you're applying: Most postings here are system tests. Before applying, confirm a role is live on Hearst's careers site. The postings that read as real include Talent Acquisition Manager (iCrossing), Anchor Reporter (KSBW), Business and Education Reporter and Circulation Customer Service (Alton Telegraph), Delivery Driver (Hearst Newspapers Michigan), Account Executive (WDSU), the Dallas and Times Union sales roles, Product Owner and People Operations Specialist (Medhok), KCCI--Administrative Assistant, and the CDS Global customer service roles.
If you're selling or recruiting: Do not read the Home Office or CDS Global counts as demand; they are mostly test postings. The clearer signals are ad sales hiring at the Dallas Morning News, Times Union and WDSU TV, which stresses multi-platform and AI-enabled selling, and recruiting capacity being added at iCrossing through the Talent Acquisition Manager role.
