Overview
CNN is looking for its next bright internship stars. As one of the world's news leaders we are interested in creative and energetic people with diverse perspectives and talents. We offer internships at our central London Bureau, where we help to bring the news to more than 250 million homes around the world.
Details
We are looking for CNN's future: people with fresh ideas, innovative viewpoints, a willingness to work hard, and a commitment to the highest standards of journalism.
At our central London bureau we offer seven, three-month internships spanning from newsgathering to special feature programmes and sports.
Interns play an important role in the daily operations of CNN. In fact, many of the current journalists within the London bureau started out as interns.
Primary responsibilities include research, fact-checking, transcribing footage, assisting on shoots, contributing story and show ideas, attending planning and creative meetings and sourcing images and footage. The paid internship will be based at CNN's bureau in Soho. Candidates should be detail-orientated, have strong writing and research skills, the ability to multitask in a fast-paced environment, and have the confidence to pitch story ideas and potential guests to show producers.
The internships are designed for recent broadcast journalism graduates or graduates from a related field seeking a career in journalism. You must be a British citizen or have the right to work in the UK prior to applying for our intern programme. Languages skills are not essential but would be an advantage.
You can apply to intern with:
- The News desk
- Interview Content Producing
- Current affairs programmes (Amanpour / The World Right Now, with Hala Gorani)
- CNNI Productions feature shows that are produced from London.
- Digital (CNN.com)
