We’re looking for an intern who’s chronically online — someone who’s just as knowledgeable about the latest TikTok trends or viral Netflix show as they are about the current state of the world. As an intern, you’ll closely follow 2 to 3 beats and write short articles, roundups, evergreen/seasonal articles and link-off pieces about popular trending, cultural and entertainment news.
