NPR Fall Internships

The NPR internship program gives interns real-world, hands-on responsibilities, in almost every division of the organization – from NPR News and Music, to Communications and Engineering. Interns are also offered training opportunities.

NPR is looking for students and recent graduates who are smart and creative, good researchers and excellent writers. Interns need to both work well on diverse teams and thrive with individual assignments. Candidates don’t need to know everything about NPR or public radio, but it helps to be at least a little familiar. And it doesn’t hurt to love NPR. 

Interns are expected to work full time (40 hours per week). All interns are paid $12.50 per hour. The amount received during the internship is based on hours per week and the length of the internship period.
