London, United Kingdom The Associated Press Full time

The Associated Press seeks talented, ambitious and diverse college students and recent graduates from around the world for its 2024 news internship program, with paid positions available in the U.S. and internationally. Applicants may express interest in one or more positions. All internships are for 20 weeks.

As a sportswriter based in London, you will help cover sports events in the region, with a strong focus on soccer. You will write match recaps, news and enterprise, working closely with other departments and formats to pursue distinctive, crossover stories that explore the intersections of sports and other beats. You will also work with AP’s digital and social media team to produce Sports content for our platforms.

An internship at AP is a full-time, paid, working experience, with successful applicants offered the opportunity of joining news gathering and production colleagues to create and craft our daily all-formats news report. We are seeking strong storytellers who demonstrate solid news judgment and are eager to put what they have learned in an academic environment into professional practice. AP’s internship program also seeks to provide opportunities for journalists from nations other than the U.S. to work for a global news agency in their home countries. Interns will be paired with a mentor/coach who will offer training and guidance throughout the program.

**Qualifications**: You should be creative, innovative and agile. Skills in more than one format (text, photo, video, audio and data) are a plus. Strong interpersonal, organizational and planning skills are a must, as is a deep interest in the news and current affairs.

**Eligibility**: Applicants must be recent graduates (fall semester 2023 and thereafter), current full-time students within two years of earning an undergraduate degree (juniors and seniors) or current full-time graduate students. You must have authorization to work in the country you are assigned to for six months in 2024. You should have advanced-level professional competency in written and spoken English and/or the language of an assigned country. Professional competency in an additional language is a plus.

**Submission materials**:
A resume, which includes details on projected graduation date and/or education status.
In lieu of a cover letter, please submit the following materials in a single document:
A 300-word personal essay discussing the qualities and accomplishments you would bring to the AP as an intern: Why do you want to work for the AP, and how would this internship align with your career goals?
Four to five examples of your best work. Links to an online site of your work are preferred.
A reference letter from a prior internship supervisor, media-related employer or faculty adviser on college/university letterhead.
