Win the ultimate sports media job with XFINITY

By sarahconnors

Are you good at social media? Think you could compete against the best if given the chance? Here's your chance - you could be the next voice of XFINITY Sports. Imagine, a Chowderite running things, giving us shoutouts all the time...okay anyway, I digress.

From January 28th to February 18th, potential applicants have the opportunity to submit a short video and written statement outlining why they should become the next voice of XFINITY Sports.

Ten semifinalists will be selected, with 8 of the best submissions selected initially and 10 alternates selected as Wild Cards. Each Wild Card contestant will have one week to campaign for votes to help them advance to the semifinalist round. Voting will take place on the XFINITY Facebook page (www.facebook.com/xfinity), and ultimately 2 Wild Cards will fill the final two semifinalist slots.

Each of the 10 semifinalists will be invited to XFINITY Live! in Philadelphia, PA (it's not too too far...), to participate in a series of challenges designed to test their social media skills. The 5 contestants who excel in their evaluations will receive the opportunity to travel to a live sporting event, hosted by an XFINITY partner.

Full prizing details include:

  • Unparalleled access to the country's premier sporting events
  • Annual salary
  • XSG Home Studio in Philadelphia apartment (I know, it's Philly, but still)
  • 12 months of free Comcast/XFINITY service (TV with all sports packages, internet and phone)

Head over to Facebook.com/xfinity to read the rules and regulations. For even more information on the contest, check out the video below.
