Want to learn the media business from the inside?  is hiring an editorial intern for our sports department. It is paid and will last about 4 months, 20 hours a week, including Friday nights and Saturdays.

In this position you will write about a multitude of sports; prepare results and standings for publication; help keep our calendar of events updated; answer phones; write everything from briefs to features and help with other tasks as needed. If you have a car (and insurance), you will get to cover sports events.

We鈥檙e looking for someone with a basic understanding of sports. We don鈥檛 care if you know who won the last Super Bowl, but you should know about first downs, RBIs, 3- pointers and power plays. If you know the Mustangs play in Chugiak and the Kardinals come from Kenai (and start with a K), all the better.

You must be detail oriented, proficient in grammar and spelling, have strong writing skills, be familiar with AP style and abhor the Oxford comma (or at the very least, know not to use it). A desire to learn and improve will take you far.

Applicants should send a letter telling us a little about yourself and how you can help us along with a resume and samples of your news, sports or features writing. Send materials to Beth Bragg, sports editor, bbragg@adn.com.
