Intern at CH by Ami Kealoha

ch.jpg

CH's looking for a smart, motivated Editorial Intern who has strong writing, research and organizational skills. We're looking for someone for the spring semester to start in January, but earlier is even better. You'll need to be NYC-based and able to commit to 20 hours weekly. See the full job description after the jump.

Editorial duties include researching, fact checking, developing, proofreading and writing stories, light administrative work and some PR. Also, the intern will be responsible for sourcing, calling in and tracking products and samples and communicating with reps. This person will work primarily with the managing editor, but will also assist two other editors as needed. We’re looking for someone who feels as comfortable liaising with designers as they do writing under daily deadlines and who is eager to take on and own new projects . Our dynamic (and fun) work environment offers a wide range of opportunities where the right person will thrive and gain invaluable experience.

Qualifications

  • High level verbal/written skills
  • Great sense of personal style and a love and enthusiasm for art, design, fashion, food or music
  • Independent work ethos
  • Attentive to detail and able to prioritize multiple projects
  • Skilled online researcher (advanced knowledge a plus)
  • Fluent with a Mac platform and common software such as photoshop
  • College degree or enrollment in appropriate field
  • Experience in publishing and/or online media preferred but not necessary
  • Recent college grads are more than welcome
  • Compensation

  • A daily stipend is available.
  • To apply, follow the contact link at the bottom of the page, select "Apply to be a contributor" from the pull-down menu and send us a cover letter.

    Split Ruler
    A cleverly subtle (and totally Japanese) update to the classic wooden ruler, the Split Ruler by Tokyo-based Cina has a pencil-shaped cut-out for placing pens or pencils when not in use. The duo behind Cina are the same two behind the snowflake-patterned flash drives that have been circulating around the internet this week, but in this case we're more captivated by the reinvention of...
    Livescribe Pulse Smartpen
    The Livescribe Pulse Smartpen is the kind of invention that marries a brilliant idea with the best available technology of an era, provoking a gee-whizz response rarely experienced in this age of rapid advancement. While smartpens have been around for some time, previous models have been riddled with problems and failed to gain a following. Livescribe nails every feature on the dot. Essentially, the...
    Tiny Vices Books
    by Gabriel Bell We've gotten lost in photographer Tim Barber's online gallery, Tiny Vices, more than we probably should. Carefully edited and simple to use, Tiny Vices does a great job of introducing readers to an entire clique of visual work ranging from the ghostly, back-alley photography of Christian Patterson to the truly cracked illustrations of David Benjamin Sherry. With artists ranging from the...
    'Sup Magazine Issue 18
    U.K.-based music publication 'Sup Magazine's 18th issue featuring cover stars The Kills has just landed at specialty retailers.
