Job Description

Slate.com's New York office is still looking for talented applicants for a summer internship with the Photo and Art department. Applicants must be matriculated students, available at least 15 hours a week for 10-12 weeks starting around June 13. Candidates must be highly organized with strong visual aptitude and be able to work independently in a fast-paced environment. Interns will gain hands-on experience editing photos and selecting art for an award-winning online magazine. This is an editing — not shooting — internship, however motivated interns could have opportunities to work on special projects and publish their work. This internship is unpaid.

To Apply

To apply, e-mail a cover letter that clearly outlines your availability, a résumé, and links to visual works online (no PDF or attachment files please) to vivian.selbo@slate.com by May 23.
