Interns will work no more than 25 hours per week. Internships start on September 13th and will continue through December 17th. If needed, there may be some flexibility in regards to the duration of the internship.

In addition to a cover letter, please include in your application a document answering the following prompts (max of 250 words each):
  1. Why are you interested in working at Macmillan?
  2. Between your skills, experiences, and everything in between, what do you bring to the table?
