Food Intern, People

PEOPLE magazine is looking for a food intern to work closely with its food and lifestyle editors. The ideal intern is a resourceful, independent person who jumps right in and becomes part of the staff—an aspiring food writer with a passion for and at least some expertise in the culinary industry.

Responsibilities might include reporting on and interviewing subjects, fact-checking and researching stories and some writing for digital—often all under intense deadline pressure.
The intern should have worked at a campus publication and/or in a food-related field—and be a creative thinker, a self-starter, professional, resourceful and a team player. Strong writing skills are a must. The intern must also be enthusiastic and see the big picture but pay close attention to detail, too—a thinker and a doer. He/she must also like working in a fast-paced, news-driven environment and feel comfortable using Instagram, Facebook, X, TikTok, etc. as reporting tools.

Because of the nature of news, some late evening and weekend work may be required. This is a full-time internship opportunity open to current students and recent grads who are able to dedicate 40 hours/week to the role.

Editorial Intern

[This position has been filled] Defector Media is a 100-percent worker-owned and -operated media company. We are looking to hire interns for a paid 10-week program in the summer of 2024. This internship can be done remotely or at our office in New York.

At Defector, we publish blogs of all kinds: reported features, sports analysis, media criticism, personal essays, and thoughtful (if sometimes dumb) takes. Defector interns, like the site’s staff writers, will be responsible for writing about things they are interested in. They’ll work with other staffers on reporting projects and, if interested, can contribute to Defector’s social, newsletter, and video work.

A small mentorship group of Defector staffers will help interns learn more about the operations of our subscription business, brainstorm areas of coverage, and most importantly: blog. They should be comfortable working in a collaborative environment, and eager to discuss and hone their ideas with other writers and editors.

Pay rate is $20/hour.

Applicants should have a decent understanding of the site’s editorial vision and voice and ideas for how their work might fit into that. Interns will allow their interest in and passion for specific beats within sports, politics, media, culture, or anything else that our readers might be interested in, to guide their focus. They will write what they know, and what they care about. An ideal intern would also show interest in the business structure of the site and be willing to help shape the internship program in the future.
