Media Internships for Minority Women

SUMMER INTERNSHIPS AVAILABLE FOR
UNDERREPRESENTED MINORITY STUDENTS
IN MAGAZINE PUBLISHING, BOOK PUBLISHING AND
TELEVISION PRODUCTION!

The Women’s Media Group, a New York City-based non-profit organization, is offering several internships during the summer of 2005 for minority women who are presently juniors in college. These paid positions are approximately eight weeks in length. The internships will be with national magazines, book publishing houses, and broadcast networks. (Last year, we placed interns with Time Inc., Conde Nast, Bloomberg Financial News, and Random House, Inc., among others.)

Housing is not provided and all applicants must be able to secure their own accommodations in the New York City area.

All interested applicants should contact us by email no later than Monday, March 7th. Interviews will be conducted during the months of February and March and applicants will be informed of decisions shortly thereafter. The application should include a resume and a cover letter telling us about yourself, your college studies, and why you are interested in an internship in book publishing, magazine publishing, or in broadcast media. Your cover letter must address one of these areas specificallya general interest in “media” is not sufficient for consideration.
