io9 is looking for interns who are obsessed with science fiction, science, and futurism. This internship is for spring, and lasts from February until June. Applications are due tomorrow at midnight!
An intern works 10 hours per week doing research, fact-checking, and contacting sources in the science and entertainment industries for story ideas and information. Some writing may be involved too, depending on experience. You must be detail-oriented, very familiar with science and/or science fiction, and able to work quickly. Photoshop and graphic design skills are a plus, as is a familiarity with common blogging tools.
Day-to-day, the job involves seeking out story ideas and helping editors gather more data for stories they're working on. This is an unpaid internship. Sorry, you must be 18 or over to apply.
Deadline to apply is Jan. 27 at midnight PST.
Send your cover letter, resume, and URLs for three samples of your writing to springintern2010@io9.com.
