Associated Press seeks interns

Full-time students and recent graduates can apply for a summer internship in eight U.S. cities - Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. - and 10 international locations - London, Jerusalem, Seoul, Mexico City, Rome, Bangkok, Johannesburg, New Delhi, Rio de Janeiro and Moscow.

After a one-year suspension, the Associated Press resumes its Global News Internship Program - a 12-week paid, individually tailored training program for students who are aspiring cross-format journalists.

Interns will contribute to AP’s text, video and photo reports. Responsibilities include tracking down information, conducting interviews, monitoring social media and covering breaking news stories, either by phone or going to the scene. Assignments may include covering general, sports, business or entertainment spot news or features.

Interns must show proof of legal authorization to intern in the assigned country prior to the start of the internship.

Candidates must send a 300-word autobiographical essay, a resume and cover letter, three to five work samples and two recommendation letters by March 2.
