The Star-Telegram summer internship program is ideal for students looking to gain daily newspaper experience. Interns work for 10 weeks, usually beginning the first week in June and ending in early August. Interns are paid $10 an hour and receive reimbursement for mileage accumulated while on assignments.
Most interns work on the city desk in one of the Star-Telegram's three newsrooms and are given a wide range of assignments. However, others are assigned to sports, features, photography, design and the copy desk.
Applicants must be college students with some experience on a campus newspaper, have a valid driver's license, proof of insurance, and access to transportation.
How to Apply
Send cover letter, resume, seven to 10 published work samples, letter of recommendation from a college adviser or professor and a two-page essay describing your goals for the internship.
Photographers should send a cover letter, resume, portfolio of 10-15 published work samples and a caption sheet, letter of recommendation from a college adviser or professor and a two-page essay describing your goals for the internship.
Applications must be postmarked by December 14, 2007.
