BizBash Media is looking for interns to work in our editorial department at
least two days a week this spring. The ideal candidate can juggle a wide
variety of tasks and won’t mind doing some grunt work while working closely
with editors on several kinds of projects.
Job duties include:
* Updating our online and print directories of event vendors and venues.
* Factchecking stories and directory listings.
* Some occasional writing of short news stories and style items.
Essential skills and qualifications include:
* Strong written and verbal communication skills.
* Ease on the phone. Candidates must feel comfortable coldcalling people
for information.
* Solid knowledge of grammar, punctuation, and the basics of reporting and
factchecking.
The position is unpaid but is a great opportunity to gain editorial
experience, clips, and a professional reference.
