McSweeney’s Internships.

We are now accepting applications for remote interns! Rolling acceptance, to start as soon as availability allows.

We are primarily seeking editorial interns, but we do have a couple select design intern positions available, and one publicity/marketing internship available. You must receive college credit to qualify for this internship. Please do not apply unless you will be able to receive college credit.

Who We Are:
McSweeney’s is an independent publisher in San Francisco committed to discovering outstanding new writing from all over the world and presenting it in ways that celebrate its worth and extend its reach. As a small press, we rely on the help of our volunteers and interns to pursue ambitious literary projects­­—projects that take risks, that support ideas beyond the mainstream marketplace, and that nurture emerging work.

Requirements:
Interns must be able to receive college credit, undergraduate or grad, for their work with the magazine. The role requires a commitment of around 10 hours per week, for 4 months. We’re flexible about when those hours take place.

How To Apply:
Email your resume and an explanation of why you’d like to work with McSweeney’s to interns-sf@mcsweeneys.net. Please let us know what internship you’re applying for, and if there’s a specific publication you’d like to focus on (The Believer, for example). Please also briefly tell us about your favorite McSweeney’s book, story, or article.
