We’re on a mission to deliver riveting storytelling for all of America. At The Washington Post, you’ll help reinvent news. Our work is driven by a deep investigative spirit and enhanced by innovation to bring audiences closer to the stories that matter most.
The Washington Post is powered by the passion and talent of our people. It takes all of us to reinvent news. Beyond our award-winning Newsroom and Opinions teams, we work across many departments, including Brand & Events, Communications, Customer Care, Engineering & Product, Finance, Human Resources, Legal, Marketing & Advertising, Print Operations, and Sales.
We’re seeking content interns to support our expanding video team. Candidates should have experience already making content: editing videos, running a TikTok, clipping for podcasts and thinking critically about titles, thumbnails and audience engagement.
Interns will turn their creator instincts into professional experience, working alongside producers, editors, and talent to bring a daily content operation to life. They will be in the room where shows are planned, clips are cut and communities are built. Interns will help with daily production tasks, gathering assets and elements for rundowns, assisting with editing clips (longform and shortform), brainstorming and editing shoulder content (e.g. reaction clips and extras). They will also track community sentiment, surface audience feedback and support social posting.

You’re a creator-in-progress, whether that’s on YouTube, TikTok or Instagram.
You are comfortable editing your own stuff (on Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, Apple Final Cut Pro, or even Apple iMovie).
You’re passionate about news, culture and internet fandoms, and know what people are sharing right now.
You’re hungry to learn the professional workflows behind making content at scale.
You are comfortable in fast-paced environments and on deadline.
We welcome interns with a range of interests — from those who love creating their own talking-head videos to those obsessed with editing political clips, remixing footage and making mashups.
Skills and Experience You Bring
We are looking for college juniors, seniors, graduate students, and recent graduates.
Required Skills:
Experience with Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, Adobe After Effects or Apple Final Cut.
Familiarity with Adobe Photoshop or Canva for quick graphics and thumbnails.
Preferred Skills:
Understanding of YouTube Studio basics (metadata, scheduling, analytics).
Experience running your own channel, page or fan account, including a keen sense of how to write platform-native social captions.
Please include the following in your application:
A résumé
A cover letter that includes links to shows or videos they have worked on and a description of what specifically they contributed to the final product.
An original social video on any contemporary news topic, with a hook, a story and a call to action.
A second video explaining how they view today’s news social landscape. They should address which YouTube shows and independent creators are approaching the landscape effectively, which ones aren’t, and what news media companies can learn from them.
All work must be submitted in English.
