    A Dream Job in Jewish Journalism

    If I weren’t already happily employed (and, ahem, somewhat older than the typical “intern”), this paid internship at Tablet would be my dream job:

    Tablet Magazine is on the hunt for an intern for our New York City office. If you have experience in journalism and are familiar with the landscape of American Jewish life, we’d love to hear from you. The intern’s focus will be on aiding contributing editor Jeffrey Goldberg with his forthcoming (forth-joining?) blog, but other tasks may be required and other opportunities available as well.

    As of now, we are looking for someone to begin in mid-August, and are flexible about time.

    If you become the lucky intern, please let me know! I may ask you for a guest post here on My Machberet!
