Job Position: Internship at literary agency (NYC)
Duration: 4-5 hours per week
Compensation: None
Job Details:
We are currently accepting applications for an intern at a boutique literary agency. A number of former JETs have interned here and benefited highly from the experience. The position is unpaid, but the experience gained is invaluable. We are hoping to fill the position ASAP.
The intern will read and recommend submissions, answer the telephone, draft emails and help in various ways around the office, including filing and restocking office supplies. Because it is a small office the intern will have an opportunity to see close up how a literary agency works and become familiar with the book publishing industry.
Qualifications:
Looking for someone with computer skills and some office experience to work 4-5 hours per week. (The days are flexible.) I would hope that the intern was fairly well-read and interested in books.
How to apply:
Please submit a short cover letter and your resume to:
