GoodRx is America’s healthcare marketplace. Each month, 20 million people visit goodrx.com to find reliable health information and discounts for their healthcare — and we’ve helped people save $30 billion since 2011. We provide prescription discounts that are accepted at more than 70,000 pharmacies in the U.S., as well as telehealth services including doctor visits and lab tests. Our services have been positively reviewed by Good Morning America, The New York Times, NBC News, AARP, and many others.


Our goal is to help Americans find convenient and affordable healthcare. We offer solutions for consumers, employers, health plans, and anyone else who shares our desire to provide affordable prescriptions to all Americans.


We’re committed to growing and empowering a more inclusive community within our company and industry. That’s why we hire and cultivate diverse teams of the best and brightest from all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We believe that true innovation happens when everyone has a seat at the table and the tools, resources, and opportunities to excel.


With that said, research shows that women and other underrepresented groups apply only if they meet 100% of the criteria. GoodRx is committed to leveling the playing field, and we encourage women, people of color, those in the LGBTQ+ communities, and Veterans to apply for positions even if they don’t necessarily check every box outlined in the job description. Please still get in touch - we’d love to connect and see if you could be good for the role!


Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are core values at our publication. We aim to both further diversify our staff, as well as to provide the best health information for a wide variety of underserved groups. Your participation in our internship program could help us to enrich our team, as well as to help to provoke new areas of coverage in our health content.


We are a publication that covers consumer healthcare in a clear, concise and well-researched way that facilitates better decision-making. Our coverage areas include Clinical, Pharmacy, Health Personal Finance, Well-being and Pet Health. Affordability and accessibility are core issues for us--and we routinely cover cost and insurance coverage, as well as the social determinants of health.


As part of our process, we do extensive fact-checking and quality assurance work. This position will be oriented around both of these tasks primarily, but will also offer additional opportunities to learn about various aspects of health publishing--including the potential to get a few byline opportunities of your own.


Our team includes medical and pharmacy editors who are licensed physicians and pharmacists, as well as experienced journalists and content creators. We also work closely with our Research group, which includes health economists who produce original published research in tandem with academics that is routinely published in peer-reviewed journals.


We would love to teach you about publishing--and to learn more about your interests, skills and priorities. Join us! 


Application process: An application is due by Oct. 1 for the 2022 inaugural class of GoodRx Editorial interns. You will receive any offer notification by the end of November 2021.


Duties: Responsibilities will vary and may include completing administrative tasks, fact-checking, performing research for stories and pitching story ideas to editors. We will ensure that you have the opportunity to learn about the publishing process--and we will aim for you to get an opportunity to write a few articles of your own, giving you a few clips to help you along the way.


Eligibility: Applicants can include recent college graduates, graduate students and individuals early in their careers. Emphasis will be given to applicants from diverse backgrounds. We are looking for interns who can add new and distinct perspectives to our work culture and our editorial product.


Duration: Six months, either from January to June or from July to December. After this period, former interns may be able to continue on a freelance basis or may be offered full-time employment, if a suitable position is available.


Pay & Hours: $15 per hour for 40 hours per week


Location: This position can be based on-site in our Santa Monica or San Francisco offices, work remotely or include a combination of office and remote work.
