The paid internships are a crash

course in hands-on business, political

and general news reporting. Every

intern will report to a senior editor

and be assigned a journalist mentor

to provide advice and guidance

during the summer. They’re expected

to write regularly and deliver in-depth

stories during their assignment.

Interns will receive several days of

formal training before they start

work, focused on writing skills,

journalism ethics, and basic financial

knowledge. They may also be able to

take advantage of other, regularly

scheduled training opportunities

during the summer, depending on

where they’re based.

Interns who excel may be considered

for other opportunities, including the

Reuters Journalism Trainee Program

or junior reporting roles. The

intensive Journalism Trainee

Program, which begins in September

2012 in New York, London and

Singapore, offers nine months of

training and leads into a staff job if

required standards are met.

THE TIMELINE www.careers.thomsonreuters.com

” The Reuters internship program

was a great platform for me to

report on the breaking news of

the day and proved a wonderful

training ground for my career

ahead. In the past year I have

covered the U.S. debt ceiling

debacle, the Middle East

uprisings, IMF-World Bank

meetings, and spent a month

helping out the Tokyo bureau

with their coverage of the

Fukushima nuclear disaster .”
