Job Description

Hearst Journalism Fellowship Program, Newsroom AI Development

The Hearst Fellowship for Newsroom AI Development is a one-year program focused on building tools for journalists and experiences for readers with the cutting-edge technology. The successful candidate will embed on the DevHub, Hearst’s San Francisco-based editorial innovation team, and they will work on AI-assisted projects, tools and news products with our core product and engineering teams and our top metro newsrooms: San Francisco Chronicle, Houston Chronicle, Dallas Morning News, Austin American-Statesman, San Antonio Express-News, (Albany) Times Union and our Hearst Connecticut newsrooms.

Fellows will receive training, mentorship and real-world experience alongside top journalist-programmers who build interactive experiences and automation tools focused on building connections to the local communities we cover.

Hearst Fellows are full-time employees with competitive salary and benefits, including health insurance, relocation allowance and a housing stipend.

What the DevHub does

The Hearst DevHub is a team of editorial engineers, AI developers, data journalists, interactive designers and content strategists who collaborate with local newsrooms to create best-in-class digital experiences. We make things like election results pages, AI tools, searchable databases, severe weather trackers, elegantly designed alternative story forms and whatever else you can dream up. You can learn more about the DevHub here.

What this fellowship could mean for your future

Our goal for the program is for Fellows to earn full-time employment at the end of the yearlong term. We want to train our next builders, and then continue supporting them as they grow into our future leaders.

While participation in the program is not a guarantee of future employment, our goal is to recruit candidates who eventually will join our full-time professional staff. All of us here have an investment in your future and in the future of Hearst Newspapers.

What the successful candidate will do on the DevHub

  • Create AI tools for newsrooms and experiences for readers that adhere to our strict editorial standards and company policies.
  • Work with newsrooms on best practices for AI usage.
  • Enrich existing tools and interactives with fresh approaches to workflows, data analysis and visualization.
  • Innovate with new technology to benefit journalists and the communities we cover.

Hearst Fellowships jump-start great journalism careers

The experience you gain as a Hearst Fellow is the start of a strong foundation for your journalism career. Our objective is to recruit, train and retain journalists who have experience with AI, data journalism and programming. Candidates should be college graduates with interest, experience or background in journalism and AI.

How Fellows are selected

Hearst DevHub team members will conduct multiple interviews and test the top candidates.

If you are offered and accept a position, you will be assigned a mentor, and we’ll help you develop relationships with seasoned professionals throughout Hearst Newspapers and beyond.

Requirements and Information

Please see our Fellows website at https://hearstfellowships.com. In addition, candidates must be willing to relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area and work a hybrid in-office schedule.

To be considered you must submit in all required documents in PDF format:

  • One-page resume that includes past journalistic experience, academic major and minor, date or expected date of graduation, permanent and current addresses, email, website, and social media addresses (if applicable).
  • Reference page that includes three work references including titles, email addresses and phone numbers.
  • Page with links to portfolio or digital work samples.

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.
