@Andrea McPherson:
Eep, accidentally signed into facebook instead of my Jezebel account so I look like one of those crazy facebook commenters. But yeah, same question. :)
So much for the concept of equal opportunity employment. Aside from the odiousness of the blatant sexism of saying that this is not open to males, it probably is illegal. At 76 years old, and as a widely published freelance writer with many decades of clips and credits, I probably could do this job between doses of Viagra and Jack Daniels. But I wouldn't waste a moment of my talent on short-sighted, bigoted foolsl.
I'm assuming this is only for students currently enrolled? Just asking because I'm a recent grad, and this might be the thing to make me sad about my non-student status for the first time since May.
I wish regular people could have interns. I need an intern to help me research some stories and spend time with my cat. You can pet her, kiss her, and play with her and she is awesome. You must be willing to read my stuff and remind me to pay my bills on time.
@KiddyKat: If you bullshit that you're a stylist/photographer/freelance whatever you can get one. I see that shit on craigslist sometimes. Sad thing is, I would apply to be a "regular person's" intern. ANYTHING TO PUT ON MY RESUME. ANYTHINGGGG!
@greengrey: What if I claim to live my life as performance art? You think I could get an intern to do my laundry and organize my desk and do my filing at my job? We're not allowed real interns at work anymore after one fucked a lot of shit up .....
Ladies I am going to duck in and duck out quickly - a lot to do still - but a few things: 1. I added the part about NYC, because I forgot the first time. Your eyes were not deceiving you. 2. The interns do everything from helping me read RSS feeds to finding pictures, to reading our tips line to sending out emails to the staff as to what's in the weekly magazines. Often they do these things when I am on vacation, but I am going to change that and make it more regular. There are other duties. 3. How this site works, see numbers 12-15:
*GASPPPPPP* OMGOSHOMGOSHOMGOSH!!! I CAN APPLY!!! AHHHHH! oh wait...i have no accomplishments and i go to a, in my opinion, crappy college....DAMN IT ALL!
@Condéleeza: I am so curious how many working mag folk (or former mag folk) are going to apply. At least we have good stories! But how to maintain anonymity..?

Where are you widely published?

Also, Anna, can you PLEASE hire this guy? I think a cranky old man with ED and a drinking problem is just the voice Jezebel needs!

More importantly, though, I'm a 33-yr old Conde Nast employee. Can I have a job?

You mean we wouldn't be doing a "stylista" type reality TV show where we live together in a glam NYC apartment?
Fuck it, I'm not applying.
