Part-Time Remote Journalism Internship - Spring 2026 - Learn and Write

The Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle is offering a part-time remote journalism internship for college students. The Chronicle has one opening for spring 2026.

This position comes with a $400 stipend for the semester. You will work for a nonprofit, and you will gain writing and reporting experience. You will do meaningful work that makes a difference. You will learn a lot and have fun. 

Full-time jobs and other internships often require or prefer previous professional experience. The Chronicle internship is designed to provide you with a rung on that ladder. You will publish work samples that you can show to prospective employers. 

If you join the Chronicle, your supervisor will be Editor Rob Golub, winner of more than ten Milwaukee Press Club awards over the last several years and former chief editor of the daily newspaper in Racine, Wis. Golub has been running this internship for more than 15 years. His “graduates” have gone on to work or intern at Facebook, Bloomberg, MSNBC, Moment magazine, and other news organizations everywhere. Leading editors at the newspapers of selective colleges were first our interns. 

You can do this internship from anywhere, so long as you have internet and a laptop. The internship is about 10-15 hours per week, which can be adjusted for your class schedule. We can adjust start/end dates.

This internship includes an Audience Engagement/Sustainable Journalism Workshop. You will learn how to create a more financially sustainable journalism product through service and connection with an audience. Golub has written about this for Poynter and is active in the national journalism community on this topic.

Prior interns have worked on stories related to immigration, big healthcare, and other issues of the day, though there is also local, community journalism to be done.

We seek bright students who are enthusiastic about journalism and have demonstrated a commitment to work or learning. You do not need to know how to be a journalist to do this internship - we meet you at your level of knowledge. 

The Chronicle is now accepting applications on a rolling basis. If you have experience working with the Jewish community, please let us know. Send your resume, writing samples and current GPA to Chronicle@MilwaukeeJewish.org.
