The Seattle Times opens remote summer 2021 internship program

October 12, 2020

Posted by Mariam Ahmed

Every year, The Seattle Times offers a series of paid summer internships to outstanding students eager to build a career in journalism.

For 10 weeks, interns have the privilege to work closely with members of the Times’ Pulitzer Prize-winning staff members on a variety of real-world assignments as employees of an established, renowned metropolitan newspaper and website.

Internships are only available to juniors and seniors (including graduating seniors) attending a four-year college or university, as well as graduate students.

Applicants must be journalism majors or have a demonstrated commitment to print or online journalism, possess social media skills, and be digitally astute.

Internship experience at other news organizations is strongly preferred.

The company is only accepting applications from students residing in Washington or Oregon. Students attending other universities or colleges from outside Washington or Oregon may still apply if they are current residents.

Students with a permanent mailing address in either state are also eligible (for example, those who plan to return to Washington or Oregon for summer break).

QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Applicants should have strong reporting, writing and multimedia skills
  • Must be 18 or older
