Various Internships

Available Internships:

Marketing Internship

Editorial Internship

Design Internship


The desired time commitment averages fourteen hours per week up to  twelve weeks. An independent publisher, we are a dynamic company that  provides excellent opportunities to acquire firsthand knowledge of the  publishing industry. We are looking for motivated, conscientious, and  dedicated individuals with excellent organizational skills, as well as  strong attention to detail, who are very eager to learn about the  children's publishing industry and be part of a high-energy, creative  team.


As internships are determined on a need basis, there is a chance a  particular department may not host an intern every semester. Candlewick  Press' paid internship initiative offers an invaluable opportunity to  develop professional skills, learn the ins and outs of the publishing  world, and make important contacts within the industry. Internships run  for approximately 12 weeks at a pay rate of $15 per hour. Internships  can be used for college credit if approved by the interns' educational  institution. We Need Diverse Books (WNDB) offers grants for diverse  candidates during the summer semester. 


Internship Period:

Summer internships (running from early June through mid-August) - April 5th

To Apply:

Submit PDFs of  your resume and cover letter via e-mail specifying the department and  semester of interest to the attention of the internship coordinator at interns@candlewick.com. If applying for more than one department's internship, please submit separate cover letters for each.
