Newsroom Internships
The Wall Street Journal internship program is an opportunity primarily for college juniors to work
in our award-winning newsrooms in either New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco or
Washington D.C. Seniors and graduate students enrolled in a degree program by the
application deadline – Sunday, October 27 – are also eligible to apply.


We are seeking self-starters who understand the needs of our audience across multiple
platforms and are able to work independently under deadline pressure. Dedication to high
journalism standards and excellent writing and reporting skills are required.


You don’t need to be an expert in business or finance to apply, but you do need to be curious
and eager to learn. You should have completed at least one prior reporting internship with
another professional media organization or published exceptional work with a campus news
outlet or as a freelancer.


The paid internship program offers practical work experience and mentorship, plus a robust
orientation and tailored training sessions. Interns are encouraged to pitch their own stories and
projects and follow them through to completion with supervision and guidance from an editor.
