The posting

Strengthening and empowering all of the communities we serve.

The Oregonian/OregonLive is now accepting applications for winter, summer and fall internships in 2027.

The pay rate for this position is $20 per hour.

Interns in The Oregonian/OregonLive’s award-winning newsroom will contribute to fast-paced breaking news reports and have the opportunity to work on impactful and enterprising projects, all under the guidance of skilled and experienced editors. We offer internships across the news, features, sports and visuals departments.

Successful applicants will demonstrate their talent and passion for informative, accurate and engaging journalism. We are primarily looking for students who have completed at least two years of college courses and have prior internship, college media or professional freelancing experience, though we encourage anyone with relevant experience and skills to apply.

We’re committed to providing a learning environment for emerging journalists. Each intern is paired with an experienced mentor and has access to newsroom training to expand their skills.

We offer 10-week internship opportunities throughout the year:

  • Winter, starting in January
  • Summer, starting in May or June
  • Fall, starting in August or September

Your complete application should include:

  • a cover letter that indicates your preferred internship timing and speaks to your experiences, career ambitions and how this internship fits in
  • a resume and up to three references who can attest to your work ethic and skills
  • three to five work samples (please combine into a single file for upload)

Cover letters can be addressed to Elliot Njus, Director of Content.

Applications for all 2027 internships are accepted now through 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on October 26, 2026. We expect to extend offers in December.

Interns must make their own housing arrangements.

This position requires reliable transportation to meet with sources and cover events. Company vehicles may be available for work-related travel, though many interns prefer to bring their own vehicle to experience Oregon in their free time.

Please send any questions to [email protected] with “Internship” in the subject line.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
