Grand Island Independent Internship Description
Interviews Sept. 23
The Grand Island Independent is seeking applicants for its summer newswriting internship. The 10-week, paid internship presents an opportunity to write a wide variety of news and feature stories covering everything from local festivals to police and government news to enterprise pieces. The intern will gain professional reporting experience while working alongside The Independent’s team of experienced journalists and should end the summer with a file full of high-quality clips, including front-page bylines. The successful applicant should be inquisitive and eager and should display a good command of language and Associated Press style. Experience is helpful, but a willingness to tackle anything and everything while learning is equally important. Everyone from seniors who will be graduating in May on down to freshmen will be considered. Applicants should submit a resume and three clips. Stories written for publication are preferable over stories written as class assignments. A cover letter is not necessary.
If you have any questions, want your resume looked over, or brush up on your interviewing skills, please schedule an appointment with Courtney Pearson, career development specialist, in 107 Andersen. You can schedule an appointment through MyPlan or contact her at cpearson5@unl.edu
