Job description

Hiring Company is hiring a Journalism Intern in Lucknow for a 6-month, fully mentored internship. This is real, reviewed work on live projects — not a training sandbox or a certificate mill.

About the internship

You will join the editorial team and work alongside people who do this professionally every day. From week one you own a scoped piece of work, take it through review, and see it ship.

• Research and report stories under editorial guidance.
• Interview sources and verify claims.
• Write and revise copy to deadline.
• Fact-check pieces before publication.
• Document your work clearly so the next person can pick it up.
• Take part in stand-ups, planning and review sessions with the team.

Journalism, Reporting, Interviewing, Research, Writing, Fact-checking, Editing, Story Structure, Deadlines, Media Ethics — plus the internal tooling the hiring team uses day to day.

What you will learn

How reporting works in practice — sourcing, verification, structure and writing accurately under deadline.

Team structure
