Online Internship - Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get paid for doing the online journalism internship?
This will depend on the internship and the job. Some will offer you payment and will provide a decent wage for the stories you produce. Others however will be for no payment. You shouldn't be discouraged from an internship though due to this, as the experience it will bring you will be of great benefit to you further on in your career.
Can I do the internship overseas and not online?
Absolutely, you can do this in Australia and New Zealand and really experience those countries! However there is generally a fee involved and you will then obviously have to pay for your own accommodation and flights over here. Payment for these internships is also usually nothing except the experience it will bring you.
I am a full time student; will I have time to do an online internship?
Absolutely, in fact you will find most of our employees are students looking in getting some extra experience. Obviously you can work out the best time management for your work and your study but if you feel confident you can juggle your time between both then it is a great chance for you to get some experience in the journalism field while you do your studies.
Why should I do an online internship?
The convenience it will bring you by not actually having to travel far is one thing, as you can literally jump out of bed and go straight to your computer to do the work. You could even work all day in you pyjamas if you really wanted too! You also will receive large amounts of experience that will help you in the future when it comes to really expanding your career and bringing you deeper into the journalism industry. Placing a journalism internship on your resume will give future employers something to work from, and it will get you a lot further then having nothing!
