The Asian American Journalists Association/Los Angeles will again sponsor a paid summer internship for a student journalist at the Pasadena Star-News this year.
The intern will cover news and key topics in Pasadena and the rest of the San Gabriel Valley for 10 weeks. Applicants should be equipped to work from their homes and/or the field (to be determined by status of the coronavirus pandemic). On-scene assignments are likely, but appropriate safeguards/safety gear would be provided.
The intern will be supervised by a Southern California News Group editor, matched with a mentor from the staff and receive a free AAJA membership.
Applicants must be enrolled in an accredited college or university or have graduated within the last six months.
The San Gabriel Valley includes some of Southern California’s most vibrant Asian immigrant communities.
The intern will be writing about trends and issues in those communities, as well as general assignment work. The intern will work 30-32 hours per week. The role may include evening and weekend shifts.
Fluency in an Asian language is a plus but not required.
Deadline is midnight PST on April 14. Send cover letter, resume and clips to Southern California News Group Senior Editor/L.A. County Thomas Bray, tbray@scng.com. Please include references. Questions: 951-756-3738 or tbray@scng.com.
