Prague? Dang it! I’m exiled enough here in Tucson.
It’s not Prague, Oklahoma, or Prague, Nebraska, or even New Prague, Minnesota, or Praha, Texas — it’s the real deal in the heart of Europe!
Count me in! Prague is amazing!
I like avast and how it works
Experienced and pro in IT!!!! COUNT ME IN….
Dear AVAST

my name is wheto samson,i whould be glawd to have the jod,am an IT student
my email is samson0982@yahoo.com
“glawd to have the jod” is not quite the level of English we need.
I would love to have this job. Alas, most of my blogging experience is on Facebook and the local newspapers. You could pay me in Pilsner Urquel!
If this is a serious inquiry, then allow me to introduce myself.
My name is Lauren and I currently live in the heart of western Virginia. I have had work writing easy-to-understand, descriptive instructions for the use of electronic devices from laptops to Blackberry’s that were loaned to various employees when I worked for the US Government a little while ago.
Electronics and the way they are evolving fascinates me and has so since I could remember, and my friends keep telling me to stop talking whenever I find something new that’s been invented or is in the process of being produced – for example: flexible AMOLED screens.. holy cow! And I’ve been a huge supporter of Avast since I dropped Norton about a billion years ago when it was eating my computer. I think I’ve converted about ten people over to the orange side.
Please let me know if you are interested, or if there is somewhere else I should “apply”. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best Regards,
Lauren
We have to move to Prague to blog? REALLY?! Do the electrons flow faster in Prague than they do in the U.S.? I’ll gladly take this job as long as I can stay here, at home, in the U.S.
At least you’re near a major city. I’m in the middle of nowhere, north of Edwards AFB.@LonLofgren
Would you be interested in a native English speaker living in Brno? Commuting to Prague wouldn’t be out of the question for me.
I Need Job in Spanish. I live in San Jose Costa Rica.
Hi Avast team, i am from Venezuela, i`m experienced in english languaje and interesting in the job publishing avast in my blog, if you need a partner you have it right now, i wanna this job.
my e mail is mistboy@hotmail.com, only avast offers will be answered.
Well, I have a bachelor’s degree in Philosophy and a reasonably proficient command of the English language but, alas, no journalism or IT experience.
After reading all of the above comments, I believe Lauren is your gal, lol!
@notheyeself
Surprise! I’m a dude. But I get that all the time.. #familyname
I’m down w/ working for Avast !
Hit me up sometime…
I’m Czechoslovakian on my Dad’s side too…

IT Server Admin 23 years English, German But i will not Relocate
Hi. I am a formerly certified IT project manager, formerly-formerly a military veteran, specialized in avionic systems, but now I study and write reports on the subject of investment analysis, commonly rewarded “editor’s pick” for the articles published. Relocation is not a problem, and don’t worry, y’all, I’m totally native.
In other words, here is my CV: forget the zeros and hire the hero.
This would be a dream job, but won’t leave Brazil to live in Prague, hey how about this same position here in Brasil
. I really like the avast software and encourage everyone to use it.
Also want to note that in your update pop-up you can post news and job offers and even adds and make a killing $$$$, lots of money, imagine the tens of millions of users you have clicking on jobs, news and adds, will beat Google nad Mcrosoft.
i’m from india(tamil nadu), count me in.
e-mail: gokulnathanpeee@gmail.com
im from indonesian , i school at IT multimedia school if this real you can contact me
email:rizki.snutz@gmail.com
i like to join with avast.
omrajroy@gmail.com
im very willing to be part of avast team!!!!
im a 3rd year scholar of one of the best school here in Philippines as BSIT(batchelor of science in information technolgy) student. . . When im in high school years, my school sent me in a journalism program and took 2 years of this course as taking also my 4th year highschool years. . . i became associate editor-in-chief!!!!
I have a BSc 1st Class in Computer Science & would love a job that paid me to monitor new technical inovations (its such a wonderful techologically fast moving world we live in). However, alas I live in the UK and have no desire to move to Prague (visit yes, but move there seems so extreme in this modern cyber space age)
Native speaker of English?. Don`t North americans speak Souix or Camanche as their native language. LOL.
I am an I.T engineering student from India.I love to follow the latest happenings in I.T. I would love to be the part of avast as a technical journalist.You can reach me at rasik20051@gmail.com.
As a couple people have made comments as to why, in the modern world, the PR writer would need to be located at our HQ in Prague, I’ll offer the following explanation:
Communication. If you want to know what AVAST employees are doing, you need to be able to walk around the offices and talk with them… ask them how things are going, what they’re working on, etc. Personal rapport is essential for internal communications. We have close to 30 nationalities working at AVAST, on many different types of projects. A person cannot experience that from halfway around the world, no matter how fast his or her internet connection.
this sounds really neat
i don’t have a background on IT journalism though. hope you find the right person for this
Hi there or as they say in Prague Ahoj!
Avast is my loyal friend for year on my little but brave, hard working PC. It would be a pleasure to write for Avast. I can, speak and even spell in Polish, Dutch, English even my German is not too bad. However German, I always have it checked by my buddy. I am a geek so I know quite a bit about bits and bytes. Still I am not an IT Student but university is only one place where you can learn about it and accumulate knowledge. I know many coders who never have place their foot into any University and still they are on top of those who have that ohh so shiny IT-diploma. But just because they got it, doesn’t mean they can put in practice in the real world. Prague is awesome city, girls always want to go to Paryska street. If I get this job, I can afford to take them there, lol. Let me know if I am taken into consideration by your Avast team. I think that Avast is very clever software, that does need more promotion, all over the world. And because I enjoyed it myself for so many years, it makes writing about it so much easier, than selling your soul by writing good reviews about a crappy piece of software or worse medication lol . Your sincerely Martin

I love how most of the people posting on here aren’t native speakers and the native speakers that did post have terrible grammar; it’s quite funny.
I am a web developer myself, but have no experience writing blogs, nor am I interested in moving to Prague. Good luck with the recruitment ad.
@Jason Mashak
Nah, this blog is good for weeding out the people you wouldn’t want to hire anyways; if they can’t read a simple recruitment ad, they have no business writing blogs professionally.
You fools. This says they wont respond to posts on here about the job. -__- Probably NOT a good idea to post phone numbers or emails on a blog where you wont be responded to.
i’m from india(Indore), count me in.
How many of you have applied to work for an internet security company, but have posted your personal details in a blog? If i were a bad person i would be calling and emailing all of you right now, instead of writing this comment lol
Hi,
