Slate's Washington, D.C. office is hiring an intern for the spring and an intern for the summer to work on data reporting, data visualizations, and interactives with our interactives editor. Candidates must be available to work at least two full days a week. This is a position for journo-geeks with sharp news judgment, keen math and writing skills, and passion for both computer science and journalism. This is not a coffee-fetching gig; interactives interns are responsible for coming up with an executing their own interactives ideas with the guidance of the interactives editor. Candidates must already know how to use Excel and must have a demonstrated grasp of modern HTML and CSS. Basic training in any programming language is a major plus. To apply, email a cover letter that clearly outlines your availability, a résumé, and links to writing samples, interactives, graphics, etc. to chris.kirk@slate.com, by Dec. 6 for the spring and Jan. 3 for the summer. The internship will be paid.
