Young journalism professionals can apply for an internship in Kenya.

Destination Magazine, an East Africa lifestyle publication, is accepting applications from college graduates for its editorial internship program starting April 1.

Interns work on a full-time, unpaid basis for six months and receive highly practical experience in story conceptualization, critical reading and analysis, research, fact checking, editorial writing and collaborative work.

Each intern works closely with an editor on one section of the magazine (features or regular sections), takes part in the creation of the publication’s content, and is encouraged to generate ideas and creatively contribute to the overall concept.

Applicants must have recently completed a degree in journalism, English literature or similar course of study. In addition, candidates must have effective verbal and written communication skills, with a very keen eye for detail.

All interns must provide proof of sufficient funds to cover all living costs for the duration of their internship. However, Destination Magazine will provide suitable accommodation during the intern’s time with the publication.
