Job Title:
Editorial Intern, Psychology Today
Part time, Manhattan
Job Description:
Psychology Today has an excellent opportunity for a few smart and talented editorial interns at our office in New York. We are a small staff, so you’ll be a key member of the team. Duties include working closely with editors on story research and special projects, light clerical work, writing news stories for PT’s Web site, web-related work including HTML and data loading, and proofing copy.
Interns also pitch story ideas and write short articles for the magazine. They typically receive two-three bylines per issue.
Background in psychology not mandatory, but a plus. We’re looking for interns who can write clear and engaging prose and have a real interest in human behavior. Must be able to juggle several tasks at once and work autonomously. Position runs June through August, two or three days a week. Position includes a small daily stipend.
To apply, send resume, cover letter, and three clips to Matthew Hutson at matt@psychologytoday.com by April 1.
