Editorial Intern [Summer]

GDP combines the best of advertising, journalism, identity, and digital to help brands tell better stories. We are looking for a summer intern to join our team of journalists and nonfiction storytellers.

Collectively, our talented crew of editors, writers, creative directors, video producers, and brand strategists have created an award-winning Netflix series, redesigned National Geographic magazine, made a documentary about iconic sneakers, and spearheaded the launch of Microsoft’s WorkLab digital publication, which includes newsletters, reports, feature stories, and a podcast.

The focus of the internship is content creation. Our clients include large tech corporations, media companies, arts and culture organizations, and nonprofits.

The candidates most likely to thrive are self-starters who prefer trying to solve a challenge their own way first before collaborating with others. They are comfortable receiving an assignment or directions and then running with the project, taking responsibility for communications with their team when they want assistance or guidance.

This is a paid hybrid role in San Francisco.

Key responsibilities include:

• Working closely with our award-winning team of journalists and editors (formerly with WIRED, Los Angeles magazine, Associated Press) on new project launches
• Writing stories across platforms and crafting podcast dossiers and social media posts
• Sitting in on editorial strategy meetings
• Collaborating with a diverse mix of teams—from art directors, engineers, and video producers to account managers and strategists—to refine and elevate your work
• Researching digital trends, pop culture, design, and other topics for ongoing editorial and client projects
• Working on a collaborative Intern Pitch Project that gives interns from different teams an opportunity to create a proposal and build a pitch from the ground up.

Qualifications include:

• A commitment of up to 40 hours a week from June through August
• Journalism majors preferred
• Junior, senior, or recent graduates preferred
• Highly collaborative and resourceful self-starters who proactively move projects forward between check-ins
• Excellent organizational skills and a strong attention to detail
