Content Writer

The job of a content writer is to create print and digital content for companies that provides information or showcases the products or services they offer.

To develop content that accurately reflects company ideals, content writers often research the material they need to write each article or product description.

However, it is possible to enter the field without a degree if you start as an intern or demonstrate writing proficiency with a portfolio of your work.
