Slates Jurisprudence section is seeking a paid spring editorial intern. This position is remote. Youll be collaborating directly with our Jurisprudence team to produce legal coverage for the site, including writing articles on Supreme Court opinions. Our ideal applicant is a law student who obsessively follows Slates legal coverage and is able to distill complex legal topics into popularly accessible commentary, preferably with a strong editorial perspective.

Slate is committed to excellence through diversity, which involves attracting talented people from diverse backgrounds and traditions. We encourage everyone to apply.

We are expecting this new position to be a fantastic opportunity for someone interested in breaking into the world of popular legal commentary and journalism. Slate will consider non-law-school students with a strong legal background, though we think the ideal candidate will be in their second or third year of law school and will have written previously about Supreme Court opinions for other publications. Candidates should be readers of Slates legal coverage and listeners of Slates Amicus podcast. Candidates should have already spent a significant amount of time watching the court, listening to oral arguments, and reading Supreme Court opinions in full.

We know that diverse perspectives make us smarter and stronger, and that all applicants, from all backgrounds, should be welcomed in our hiring process and given equal opportunities to be evaluated based on their qualifications and skills. If you require a reasonable accommodation during the application and selection process, please let us know. We will do what we can to meet your needs.
