Editor--Head First

2008-09-11T18:11:27-08:12

The Head First series of books was designed five years ago as an alternative to the linear point A to point B presentation format commonly used in crafting technology books. The training methodology is based on the notion that people take in and process information differently. The approach is unorthodox, yet intuitive - blending various training styles involving design and graphical elements with an easy-to-understand story. The multiple twists and turns are designed to engage the user, leading to an increased retention of technical information.

As Editor, we will expect you to think non-traditionally. You will actively acquire authors who develop and write the content for various book projects. However, unlike many editing positions, you will be an integral part of the creative process. This is an opportunity to be involved in every step of a book’s creation, from narrative to flow to realizing the end result. While authors are responsible for content, Head First editors craft and hone that content into an accessible learning experience.
