The Boston Globe is inviting interns to work as staffers for summer 2012. The 12-week program gives students a chance to work for a major metropolitan newspaper, covering a variety of stories in their Metro, Business, Living/Arts, Health/Science and Sports sections, as well as shooting photos and video, designing pages and graphics for print and online, and copy editing.
An aptitude for newspaper work is the most important qualification for the internship. Applicants must have had at least one previous internship at a daily newspaper and possess a valid driver’s license.
Summer interns work as full-time employees for 12 weeks, between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Interns are paid a weekly wage, and shifts vary.
