We have launched Splash Magazines Worldwide around the world!

Internship with a highly trafficked, Los Angeles-based, online lifestyle magazine.

A little about us: Splash Magazines Worldwide are online lifestyle magazines. We get approx 20 million hits each month from over 200 countreis woldwide.

In addition to Los Angeles www.lasplash.com , we have just launched in New York at www.nycsplash.com, Chicago at www.chicago-splash.com, Paris at www.parissplash.com, London at www.londonsplash.com, Boston at www.bostonsplash.com, Atlanta at www.atlanta-splash.com, Miami at www.miamisplash.com, San Francisco at www.sanfranciscosplash.com, Dallas at www.dallassplash.com, San Diego at www.sandiegosplash.com , Denver at , www.denversplash.com, Detroit at www.detroitsplash.com, Las Vegas at www.lasvegassplash.com, Toronto at www.torontosplash.com, Washington D.C. at www.washingtondcsplash.com , Amsterdam at www.amsterdamsplash.com , Bangkok at www.bangkoksplash.com , Tokyo at www.tokyosplash.com , Barcelona at www.barcelonasplash.com and will soon launch in many other cities in the US and around the globe.

Here is the basic information for our Remote Internship Program. We would set you up with all the necessary online tools as well as instructions to post calendar events in our magazine as well as the knowledge and ability to write and post actual articles. You would be trained from very specific instructions and learn how to do mail merges, use Photoshop for our needs of photo manipulation, how to search for and mine information needed, how to communicate with the appropriate PR people and proper go to people, how to use MSWord on a higher level than you probably do now, etc. You would need to be a great listener and fast learner. You would learn the majority of this information from specific procedures/instructions we have created. You would be set up with an email account that you would use to notify the PR people that you have posted their events and to be able to ask for an RSVP. We would set you up with the ability to communicate with us and others around the world. The only thing that we require that you have is a computer with an internet connection and a reliable phone number for us to get in touch with you.

In addition to doing the postings for your home cities events, you would be able to attend local events and write articles on them. Things such as plays, opera, film screenings, spas, restaurant reviews, concerts, basically anything you see that we cover in the ten sections of our magazines. This could even in time include travel articles but you need to prove yourself and start small to prove that you are a very responsible person as well as a good and timely writer. As our presence in the your home cities area grows, we would potentially ”upgrade” our interns to assistant editor or editor for your city.

Your hours will be very flexible since you will be making your own schedule!

Our interns go to concerts, V.I.P. events, film screenings, parties and charity events for our Entertainment & Culture section, fashion events and clothes for our Style & Fashion section, restaurant reviews for our Food & Wine section, makeup for review, and spa treatments for our Beauty & Body section, free hotel rooms for our Travel & Leisure section, technology products both hardware, software and games for our Tech Talk section, etc. etc. just check our site to see more. We also have section on Home & Garden, Romance, Vehicles, Fresh Faces (beautiful young women) and Adopt Me (pet adoption.)

There is no cash for this internship, just the knowledge gained, the perks received, being treated like a celebrity and being able to experience things you would otherwise never be able to experience. Although there is no age or academic requirements, if you are taking this internship for school credit, and its ok with your school for a remote internship, you can tailor your work week to fit in as many hours as you need. If you are just doing it for the experience, your hours are totally flexible and up to you. If we work together and you are assertive, you will find that the ‘power of the press’ offers limitless benefits. You will be able to make article/story proposals, get media passes to local events, request products to review, and get your writing out where it needs to be; published and online for the world to see.

Job Requirements:

We at Splash Magazines Worldwide are looking for talented, self motivated individuals with exceptional listening and communication skills. You should have a strong desire to work within the Media. You must be very open to leaning new information, be willing to follow and learn procedures. You should enjoy organization, office projects, writing, editing and public relations and have a friendly personable attitude that will positively represent our organization through your writing and at events you would attend.
