BLACKNEWS.COM – VIBE.com, the web site for one of Black America’s long-existing magazines, is hiring college students who have an interest in the music industry. The web site, like the magazine, covers all aspects of entertainment (hip-hop, R&B, pop, movies, sports), as well as some fashion and lifestyle.
Ideal candidates include people who have a strong interest and knowledge of hip-hop, R&B and dance music.
Because the internship is primarily digital-based, daily tasks include writing news briefs and sending pitches for vibe.com. Other duties: Researching stories and transcribing interviews with celebrities. On occasion, interns may be asked to attend events and do red carpet reporting on behalf of VIBE. Interns with an active interest in print will have occasional opportunities to assist with the magazine.
