StarTribune Summer Internship Program

Deadline

About the Internship

We select candidates for paid 10-week internships each summer. The program targets college and graduate students interested in pursuing careers as reporters, copy editors/multiplatform editors, designers, photographers and multimedia producers.

Qualifications & Requirements

Most successful applicants have:

  • completed their junior or senior year in college
  • worked for college news media AND interned with at least one professional daily news organization.

We’re looking for high-potential journalists who’ve demonstrated they’re ready to make the most of this opportunity.

Benefits & Compensations

  • Interns are paid the same as a first-year professional, which is $750 a week.
  • Students get real-world experience in a major daily news environment, which is key to future employment prospects. Over the years, we have hired many of our interns into professional-level jobs.
  • Our interns are assigned mentors, in addition to supervisors.
  • Senior writers and editors hold craft sessions to speak with interns about building key skills.
