Full-time jobs and other internships often require or prefer previous professional experience. The Chronicle internship is designed to provide you with a good rung on that ladder. You will publish work samples that you can show to prospective employers. Journalism organizations tend to appreciate published work samples from outside academia.
This is an unpaid position that will give you writing and reporting experience. You will learn a lot and have fun.
If you join the Chronicle, your supervisor and mentor will be Editor Rob Golub, winner of ten Milwaukee Press Club awards over the last several years and former chief editor of the daily newspaper in Racine, Wis. Golub has been running this internship for about 20 years. His “graduates” have gone onto Facebook, Buzzfeed, Moment magazine, respected digital news outlets, and daily newspapers everywhere. Interns have included students from some of the most competitive universities in the nation.
You can do this internship from anywhere, so long as you have internet and a laptop. Expect about 8-12 hours per week of work.
The Chronicle is now accepting applications on a rolling basis for the fall and spring internships, two separate positions. Send your resume, writing samples and current GPA to Chronicle@MilwaukeeJewish.org. Let us know which position you prefer.
