FASHION Magazine offers three amd four month unpaid internships
in seven departments: editorial, fashion, beauty, photo, marketing,design
and sales. Interns work Mondays to Fridays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m, except in the
Vancouver office. Although the bulk of the work is administrative, interns
gain valuable career experience in return for their efforts and are invited to
sit in on editorial meetings.
A keen interest in magazines is essential. All interns should be detailoriented
and organized, with strong written and verbal communication
skills, and the ability to juggle multiple demands and meet deadlines.
Experience dealing with public relations people and a good phone
manner are assets.
