Full Job Description
The Daily Progress, the newspaper of record for Charlottesville and Central Virginia since 1892, is seeking student journalists to take part in a 10-week, paid summer internship.
Applications are open to those interested in a variety of newsroom careers: reporters, editors, photographers, videographers and more. All successful candidates, however, must be hardworking, innovative and deadline-driven.
The Daily Progress' interns work alongside professional journalists who provide guidance, direction and support over the course of the 10-week program.
Flexibility is an asset, as interns will be expected to juggle multiple tasks and perform some night and weekend work.
At least one prior internship in a professional newsroom or comparable work at a college news outlet is preferred, but not necessary.
Interns should have their own mode of transportation for assignments.
Exceptional interns will be considered for employment.
Apply with a resume and work samples at lee.net/careers.
The Daily Progress has served the residents of Charlottesville and its surrounding counties for 133 years. Long associated with its native son Thomas Jefferson, his Academical Village at the University of Virginia and his mountaintop estate at Monticello, Charlottesville today is more than a historic college town in the Virginia backcountry.
Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Charlottesville sits in the heart of what is now a multibillion-dollar wine country, known for years as the Napa of the East Coast and named "Wine Region of the Year" in 2023. The countryside also hosts a variety of equine sports, including racing, hunting and polo. Almost exactly 100 miles from the nation's capital, the city itself has become a satellite of many Washington agencies, as well as the contractors and consultants who assist them. The biotech industry also is booming, with a multimillion-dollar research center under development designed to rival North Carolina's Research Triangle. As a result, the region is growing quickly and is now the second-most expensive real estate market in all of Virginia outside of the immediate Washington suburbs.
All of this lends itself to a variety of stories worth telling. The Daily Progress is looking for the right people to tell them.
