Internship application season, how to pitch a permanent WFH situation and more
Happy Monday! Skim for your weekly roundup of jobs, industry readings, resources and more.
đ» Itâs internship application season: MEOjobs curated a list of dozens of media internships on Twitter, including from places like CBS, NBC, NPR, Politico and more.
đ âGuidelines to ask to work remotely foreverâ: Fast Company published a piece with step-by-step tips on how to âbuild your winning pitch for a permanent work-from-home arrangement.â
đ New year, new rates: Jenni Gritters, a freelance business coach, tweeted a reminder that âthe end of the year is a natural time to revisit your rates with anchor clients!â
Gritters added that freelancers could write: âHey, as we head into a new year, Iâm upping my rates a bit to X. That means, for the work weâre doing, my monthly payment would look more like Y. Can we talk about this?â
đ âOnline Harassment: Strategies for Journalistsâ Defenseâ: The Knight Center is offering a free, four-week online course that will teach about âonline privacy and how to better protect yourself while working as a journalist.â
The course is offered in partnership with the International Womenâs Media Foundation and it starts today.
Thanks for reading!

P.S. Here are a few things that fueled this newsletter/me this week:
đ„ âAn ergonomically correct workstationâ: Wirecutter shared this great graphic on the ideal sitting position to support your body and reduce discomfort.
đ„Š âBaked pasta with broccoli rabe and sausageâ: I made this cheesy comfort food this week, and it did not disappoint.
đ âAbby Phillip Is Next-Gen CNNâ: NYTâs profile of CNNâs Abby Phillip says âin an election dominated by fast-talking policy dudes, her deliberate commentary and context stood out.â
Iâm planning to send the first paid edition of my newsletter this Thursday. I spend hours each week on free coaching sessions with other journalists, and I frequently do resume reviews. Subscribe here to see some of the most common fixes I suggest.
