Internship Program

InkWell offers educational, unpaid internships in the spring, summer and fall seasons. Interns assist with the reading and evaluation of manuscripts, learn about the submission process to editors and latest developments in industry trends, and are provided guidance on furthering a career in publishing. InkWell has a successful track record helping interns find paid publishing positions throughout the industry.

Positions are posted at bookjobs.com throughout the year, but at any time we welcome applicants who are interested to email a cover letter and resume in the body of the email (no attachments) to: hiring@inkwellmanagement.com.
In the subject line, indicate the season and the year, along with the word ‘Internship’. No phone calls, please.
