Intern LE

Us Weekly is looking for a summer intern to assist our editorial team from June 1 to September 1. This role will provide critical support for our digital and reporting teams, and candidates should have experience writing and juggling multiple priorities. Applicants should have a deep love of pop culture and be able to work at the fast pace of a newsroom, with a can-do attitude and ability to keep a close eye on small details.
