All applicants should submit a resume and cover letter as well as a portfolio, links to any past clips or writing samples.

Observer (https://observer.com/) is a premier online editorial platform. For the past two decades, we have captured a loyal readership through witty, irreverent and opinionated coverage of society, technology and innovation, real estate, arts, culture and entertainment. Although the New York Observer has been discontinued as a print publication, its legacy endures through our digital platforms.

Observer has published many of the nation’s top journalists, critics and essayists over the years, including Joe Conason, John Heilpern, Lee Siegel, Rex Reed, Andrew Sarris, Robert Gottlieb, Ron Rosenbaum, Susan Faludi and Peter Bogdanovich. In the mid-1990s, the New York Observer published “Sex and the City,” Candace Bushnell’s column on Manhattan’s social life that inspired the hit television series and subsequent films.

Observer interns do more than research and fact-check articles as they move from writer to editor to publication. Primarily, editorial interns are tasked with working within one of Observer’s verticals—business, lifestyle, arts or entertainment—assisting that section’s editor. Interns will be expected to write regular articles while at Observer, developing their own beat and byline. When not on deadline, interns are encouraged to become acquainted with Observer’s editors and writers, support newsroom operations, contribute to longer-term editorial projects and do their own research and reporting.

In your cover letter, please indicate which vertical (business, lifestyle or arts) you're interested in and why.

Observer’s newsroom boasts a unique and tight-knit team culture that benefits from the energy of its reporters and the experience of its editors. Though much of the team is remote, we have daily meetings and frequent check-ins. There are also opportunities to come into the office. Interns are fully integrated into this hybrid environment, where they have the opportunity to gain invaluable reporting, online editorial and in-person newsroom experience.

Observer runs three internship sessions a year: Spring (early January through May), Summer (June through August) and Fall (early September through December). Interns can work remotely but have the option to come into Observer's office in Manhattan. Former interns have gone on to be hired full-time at Observer, as well as at The New York Times, New York Magazine, The New Republic and many other publications.
