What are remote editorial interns?

Remote editorial interns are individuals who assist editorial teams with tasks such as writing, editing, fact-checking, and content management, all while working from a location outside of the physical office. These internships are typically offered by media companies, publishers, or content-driven organizations looking to provide students or early-career professionals with hands-on editorial experience. Remote editorial interns communicate and collaborate using digital tools, and their responsibilities may include drafting articles, proofreading, researching topics, and supporting the editorial workflow. This role helps interns gain valuable experience in publishing and media while offering flexibility in terms of location.

What are some common challenges faced by Remote Editorial Interns, and how can they be managed effectively?

Remote Editorial Interns often face challenges such as maintaining clear communication with editors and meeting deadlines without in-person supervision. To manage these effectively, it's important to proactively check in with your team, use project management tools, and seek feedback regularly. Setting a structured daily routine and taking initiative in asking questions can also help overcome feelings of isolation and keep projects on track. Building strong digital communication skills is key to thriving in this role.

  • Internship period is twelve weeks from 9/14/2026-12/4/2026
  • Our workday is 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time; specific work hours are flexible to accommodate an intern's schedule.

If you are interested in applying, please submit your resume and cover letter* to Anthony Cardellini (acardellini@wwnorton.com) and Felicia Jarrin (fjarrin@wwnorton.com) no later than August 14, 2026. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis, and if enough applications are received, this listing may close early. Once you have submitted your application, please refrain from sending additional follow-up emails, as these will only delay the hiring manager's ability to read the applications received. Final hiring decisions will be made by 9/1/2026, so if you do not hear from us by then, you can assume the internship has been filled by a different applicant. You must follow these submission instructions in order to be considered for the internship.
