Do you stay up late waiting for recaps of Game of Thrones or The 100 or The Mindy Project to go online? Do you love taking a deep dive into weekend box-office figures? Are you still completely obsessed with Harry Potter? We’re all entertainment geeks here at EW, and we’re looking for recent graduates who are passionate about pop culture and well-versed in at least one of the areas we cover (TV, movies, music, and books).
Daily responsibilities include some usual entry-level tasks, such as transcribing interviews, assisting with research projects, and maintaining our databases, but a motivated intern can dispatch those in short order and move on to more exciting tasks: writing blog posts and TV recaps, reporting stories, covering red carpets, attending movie screenings, and so on. Interns are expected to pitch, not just to the ew.com editors but to print editors as well.
The ideal candidate lives and breathes pop culture; is self-motivated; will have impeccable research, reporting, and writing skills; and will already have completed at least one internship.
- WHEN: (March 2017 to August 2017); 40 hours/week at $10.50/hour
- WHO: Recent graduates interested in a career in entertainment journalism
- HOW TO APPLY: Please send a resume, cover letter, and 3-5 previously published clips to Molly.Smith@ew.com and Noelene.Clark@ew.com.
- DEADLINE: Feb. 10, 2017
