Job Description Edible Manhattan and Edible Brooklyn, two James Beard Award-winning magazines about place-based taste, seek an editorial intern to assist in the final stage of preparing our pages for the printer. Position is unpaid but intern will see how magazine sausage is made (it’s beautiful!) and gain solid media skills, as well as our undying gratitude. For about one week a month, we have an issue in layout and seek someone with an eagle eye and ninja-esque writing skills to help put it to bed – primarily by drafting pitch-perfect titles and captions.
Intern can work from anywhere, at any time of day or night, up to roughly 10 hours, one week a month.

Specific duties:

• Be an extra set of eyes. Every story will have already been edited (for content and voice) and copyedited (for spelling and grammar) so we aren’t primarily looking for the punctuation police, but if you catch an awkward sentence or an extra L in “Colicchio,” you get extra credit. 
• Draft titles, subheads, captions, and cover teasers. This is the main assignment. Once you’ve read each assigned story, suggest clear-but-clever turns of phrase that entice people paging through the issue to stop and read. That’s what it’s all about.
• Sum it up. Once the issue is done, draft a few sentences for the eblast announcing the new issue to readers, inspiring them to pick up a copy or download our free digital version.
• Supersize it: What, you want more? Okay if you wish, you might also have the pleasure of helping review pitches, brainstorming future story ideas, contributing to our blog, or possibly taking on paid writing assignments for print. But the above is the starting point. Let’s talk.

Qualifications: The ideal candidate will know our beat and wield a witty pen, able to propose clever headlines and captions and overall make our jobs easier and our product better. Compensation this position is How to apply Deadlineno deadline
