Summer 2025 Editorial Intern, Advice

Remote, USA Full-time Posted 2026-06-17

About the role

Slate is looking for a summer editorial intern for its Advice section. This internship is suited for someone who wants hands-on experience working at a fast-paced online magazine and who wants to pursue a career in editing. You’ll help support Slate’s flagship columns—Dear Prudence, Care and Feeding, Pay Dirt, How to Do It, and Good Job—and embed in a team focused on all things Slate Advice.

This internship will run for 90 days, starting in May or June depending on the candidate’s availability. The position is based in Slate’s Brooklyn office but remote candidates will be considered.

The internship pays minimum wage in your location or $16 an hour, whichever is greater. The deadline to apply is March 20.

Requirements

Candidates must be organized and detail-oriented, have a proven interest in editorial work, and be familiar with Slate’s advice columns. They must be able to work efficiently and without much supervision, but also be enthusiastic about contributing to a team. This is not a podcasting position. To apply, please send a brief cover letter explaining why you’d excel in this role, and a résumé.

Responsibilities

  • Assisting with creating columns in our content management system
  • Organizing our question inboxes and assisting with question selection
  • Selecting letters from the Dear Prudence archives to recirculate
  • Contributing to our deliberations on headlines and lead letters
  • Editing 1–2 columns per week
  • The internship pays minimum wage in your location or $16 an hour, whichever is greater.
