Can You Fetch Coffee? the Beijinger's Looking For Interns

In all seriousness, we're not looking for someone to fetch us coffee - mainly because we don't drink that much. What we are looking for, however, are good interns. Yes, you will work in a fast-paced and challenging environment for below the minimum wage*; but no, you will not waste your days bringing us hot drinks, filing and making photocopies.

What you will do instead is participate in the planning, research and writing of articles, blog posts and events for both the Beijinger magazine and this website. Better yet, if you have a particular expertise or obsession – be it food, nightlife, shopping or sports – we can arrange it so that you are involved as much as possible in the things you care the most about.

What we get out of it is assistance in our ongoing top secret projects and some much needed contributions to our continually growing stream of online and print content, while you will come away with some solid professional and media experience, a collection of great writing clips and a modern-day rolodex full of new connections.

Why not give it a shot? Impress us with your CV and some samples or links to your blog and online articles to editor@thebeijinger.com. If you have a specific proposal for how you could contribute to the magazine and/or website, we'd be delighted to hear it.

*Depending on what you consider the minimum wage
