EDITORIAL INTERNSHIPS
Are you a slave to detail? A grammar guru? A word wizard? You'll spend time honing your copyediting and fact-checking skills. Are you a private eye at heart? Do you enjoy looking past the front-page news to find the inside story? Then dig up what's going on behind closed doors while writing forMilwaukeeMag.com and the print edition of Milwaukee Magazine. Are you a trend-seeker? Write mini-reviews of the city's latest in everything and contribute to blogs at MilwaukeeMag.com. Are you an organizer? Collect and sift through information on a long-term feature story project, working with top freelance writers and our editors.
You get the idea.
Our semester- and summer-long internships give you hands-on experience. You'll be given assignments and deadlines. You'll accompany writers on interviews. You'll dig up public records and make phone calls. Interns are encouraged to take part in editorial meetings and offer opinions and story ideas. Milwaukee Magazine interns are not paid, but they trade their hard work for class credit and solid journalistic experience. Past interns have gone on to work for Maxim, New York magazine, the Milwaukee mayor's office, a New York publishing house, the Associated Press, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and Waukesha Freeman. Several have also returned to Milwaukee Magazine.
