The posting

Strengthening and empowering all of the communities we serve.

The Staten Island Advance/SILive.com is seeking energetic, enthusiastic students or recent graduates who have completed college-level journalism coursework to spend a semester working alongside our journalists as part of our paid Internship Program.

This hands-on opportunity gives aspiring journalists real-world experience reporting and creating digital content in a fast-paced local newsroom.

The pay rate is $17 per hour. Interns work 16 hours per week, preferably split into two eight-hour shifts. Depending on newsroom needs, weekend shifts may also be available at certain times.

Interns may pursue real-time reporting in the field, learn the systems and digital tools used by media professionals and serve Staten Island as part of our community news team. Areas of focus may include reporting, writing, photography, social media, videography and/or assisting with podcasting.

What we're looking for

Candidates should:

  • Have completed college-level journalism coursework and have a working knowledge of AP style.
  • Have strong written and verbal communication skills and be a self-starter.
  • Be comfortable taking photos and shooting short-form video for social media and other digital platforms, including while reporting in the field.
  • Be comfortable using artificial intelligence tools to streamline appropriate tasks and newsroom workflows while following newsroom standards and editorial guidance.
  • Be able to work in a fast-paced newsroom and pivot quickly when breaking news or other assignments arise.
  • Have reliable transportation and be able to travel throughout Staten Island, getting to assignments in a timely manner when needed.

Interested candidates should complete an application, and attach a cover letter and resume.

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.
