Reuters, the world's largest international multimedia news agency, is looking for talented students or recent graduates for its 2012 London summer internship program. The 6-week paid internships are a crash course in hands-on business, political and general news reporting. Every intern will report to a senior editor and be assigned a journalist mentor to provide advice and guidance during the summer. Interns are expected to write regularly and deliver in-depth stories during their assignment. Interns will receive several days of formal training before they start work, focused on writing skills, journalism ethics, and basic financial knowledge. They may also be able to take advantage of other, regularly scheduled training opportunities during the summer, depending on where they're based. Interns who excel may be considered for other opportunities, including the Reuters Journalism Trainee Programme or junior reporting roles. The intensive Journalism Trainee Programme, which begins in September 2012 in New York, London and Singapore, offers nine months of training and leads into a staff job if required standards are met.
