Hear Nebraska Wants to Use You (but really, who's getting used here?)

Nebraska's nonprofit music media company is looking for one (maybe two) crack-shot, enterprising, self-starting, multi-media content-producing interns to help us cover, promote and document the state's music culture for 15-20 hours/week during the spring semester.

Candidates must be journalism or marketing majors who possess the following skills and attributes:
• Ability to produce quick, accurate copy on deadline that, critically, does not bore;
• Understanding of social media and a proven ability to use it effectively;
• Diverse multimedia abilities (video, photo, audio, social);
• A knack for storytelling;
• Ability to communicate effectively and stay on task remotely;
• Desire to grow professionally and socially;
• Ability to generate engaging, compelling story ideas;
• Love of music (especially local).

The chosen candidate(s) will get:
• Tough edits that will make them stronger, more-skilled and -polished journalists;
• A portfolio full of dynamic multimedia clips;
• An opportunity to manage one of HN's social media channels; 
• A flexible, production-focused schedule; 
• The chance to be in the team and on the ground-floor of a young, growing nonprofit;
• Free entrance into all HN-sponsored shows, and other concerts when possible.
• Interested applicants should send their resumé and multimedia clips (links are fine) to andrewn@hearnebraska.org by 10 p.m. Jan. 16.
