Editorial Internship with San Francisco magaizine- San Francisco

Editorial Internship Program for San Francisco Magazine
We're looking for highly motivated interns to help produce our award–winning monthly city/regional magazine. Primary duties are fact-checking, research, and proposing story ideas, with occasional opportunities for writing and taking on more responsibilities, depending upon experience. We cover a wide range of subjects–food, style, arts, news, trends, politics, travel, and investigative reporting–and interns have a rare opportunity to be exposed to the full spectrum of journalism. Interns get a first-hand look at magazine production through participation in editorial meetings and working with editors, and often help report service features on local business, the arts, nightlife, shopping, and our annual Best of the Bay Area issue. Additional opportunities range from assisting at fashion photo shoots to helping with copy editing.
