The Orzhov phase is coming to an end next week, and after a short break, we’ll be picking up the pace with new additions to the program, as well as a new theme.

What you need to get started

A resume is required, but experience isn’t! Our goal is to teach you and help you grow. A writing sample is helpful, but is also not required.

You’ll need a Skype account and a Google account so that you can talk to your team daily, and have access to things like Google Drive.

Last, but most importantly, you’ll need about 10-20 hours a week to devote to our platform and to your team.

What you’ll get out of the program

Though the internship is unpaid, you’ll get hands-on experience in professional situations and you’ll get the chance to interview developers and important community figures. You’ll also write for a growing audience, and learn how to use social media to give your content the boost it needs.

One top-performing team each week will receive $50 PayPal per person. You may also receive perks like sweet gear, demo/play codes for upcoming titles and hardware to review! We also offer class credit to those who need it and have approved it with their university adviser.

Many interns have used us as a reference with inspiring results! One is now a part time editor on staff, and some are now paid writers. Many have moved on to other positions where their experiences with us helped them achieve their goals.

How to apply

Send over your resume and any additional material to [email protected]. If you haven’t created an account yet, feel free to do so and become familiar with posting!

Changes to expect if you’re a continuing participant:

  • Weekly Google hangout classes to answer questions and discuss topics of interest.
  • Weekly assignments to further assist you in getting your feet wet in the industry
  • User ranks and team ranks
  • More assignments with topics from breaking news to creative writing
  • Edition-themed teams (Tomb Raider theme)

Survivor Edition begins August 12, and ends December 7th.
