Hilary Lehman: ‘Being an intern in unsure times’
April 17th, 2009Posted by Judith Townend in Editors' pick, Training
In a candidly written post, Hilary Lehman shares her thoughts on an internship at the Miami Herald.
“(…)Being an intern during that time was draining. I wasn’t completely a spectator, but I wasn’t participating either. My job wasn’t at stake, and my career wasn’t on the line. As an editor darkly noted later, I didn’t even take a pay cut. But I was watching my future collapse around me.”
