Journalism students or recent graduates can apply for a paid internship.
Thomson Reuters is seeking summer interns for its London, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Beijing locations.
These internships are a crash course in hands-on business, political and general news reporting. Every intern will report to a senior editor and be assigned a journalist mentor to provide advice and guidance. They are expected to write regularly and deliver in-depth stories during their assignment.
Interns will receive several days of formal training before they start work, focused on writing skills, journalism ethics and basic financial knowledge. They may also be able to take advantage of other, regularly scheduled training opportunities during the summer, depending on where they’re based.
Six interns will be selected to train in Europe and Asia, respectively. London internship sessions are six weeks long, and Asia internships last eight weeks.
Fluency in English is required.
The deadline to apply is March 31.

Hello everyone, I’m looking forward to meeting some of you for the first time in term 2 when I’ll be coming in to teach the Magazine Journalism module for the BA 2nd years and the Print Production Module for the MAs. In preparation you might all find this link useful. It’s a webchat with the Associate Editor of Stylist magazine giving lots of useful hints what their magazine is looking for in a good feature and pitch. There is also work experience advice and lots of good general tips and hints. See you in January. Lydia
