Media interns: Share your experiences
Did you work a media internship this summer… or in the recent past? We’d like to hear about your experiences. Errol Salamon is a freelance writer and the work and labour editor of J-Source. He’s also the author of a series of columns on Story Board called E-Lancer Writes.
For his next column, Errol is planning to explore media internships in Canada. He’s interested in hearing what was beneficial and what could have been improved about your internship experience. He will keep your responses anonymous, if you’d prefer.
This is just the beginning of our union’s exploration of media internships. This year, the CWA Canada Associate Members Steering Committee is organizing a way for associate members across Canada to share their internship stories. These responses could become part of a report about working conditions at media internships.
Help us learn more about media internships in Canada. You can email Errol at errolsalamon@gmail.com for more information.
