Are you an early-career journalist, storyteller, or multimedia wizard who digs what we do? Then Grist wants you!

We are now accepting applications for the spring 2015 class of the Grist Fellowship Program.

Reader support makes our work possible. Donate today to keep our site free. All donations DOUBLED!

Once again we’re inviting writers, editors, and online journalists of every stripe to come work with us for six months. You get to hone your journalistic chops at a national news outlet, deepen your knowledge of environmental issues, and experiment with storytelling. We get to teach you and learn from you and bring your work to our public. You won’t get rich — but you will get paid.

You’ll work closely with our editors in Seattle, and with the program’s director, Andrew Simon, on reporting and executing stories for Grist. If your skills extend into realms like data journalism, multimedia, and software development, all the better. You don’t need to be a guardian of the galaxy (although that would be pretty cool), but you do need to be self-motivated, hard-working, and hungry to improve your skills.

Grist thanks its sponsors. Become one.

For fellowships that begin in January 2015, please submit applications by Oct. 10, 2014.

Good luck!
