INTERNSHIPS AT WALRUS MAGAZINE

http://www.walrusmagazine.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/09/1835250#writers

—

Location Toronto, Canada. The Walrus editorial internship aims to introduce aspiring writers and editors to the magazine industry and to train them for future work in their fields. Editorial interns’ major responsibilities include fact checking, research, and reading unsolicited pitches. Interns take part in production and story meetings, may shadow edit articles alongside staff editors, assist with proof reading final copy, and are encouraged to pitch stories to the magazine. Administrative tasks are part of the interns’ responsibilities, but will never occupy more than ten percent of their time. To apply, please submit a statement of purpose, a resume, and two letters of reference. Editorial internship applicants who have a strong preference for starting time should indicate their preference. Qualified editorial applicants will be given a set of tasks to complete in a time limited period, and a selected group will be interviewed. All interns receive $900 bi-weekly, plus benefits. There are two six-month Editorial Internship sessions per year. Four interns are chosen for each session, and begin in pairs on consecutive months. Application deadlines are:

October 15, for January and February

April 15, for July and August

All applicants must be graduates of a post-secondary academic institution or design school and no more than thirty years old.
