The William Morrow Group, a division of HarperCollins Publishers, is seeking a Marketing & Publicity Intern!
This internship is based in NYC on a hybrid schedule.
The Morrow Group is comprised of several imprints - flagship imprint William Morrow, as well as Dey Street Books, Mariner Books, Harvest, Harper Voyager, and Avon Books - and publishes a range of titles across most publishing categories including Jessica Simpson, Gabrielle Union, Dave Grohl, Lucy Foley, Tabitha Brown, Joe Hill, Joanna Gaines, Ree Drummond, AJ Finn, and more.
The William Morrow Marketing & Publicity group consists of 25+ dynamic and creative individuals, who work across the William Morrow, Mariner, Dey Street, Harvest, Avon, and Harper Voyager imprints to secure widespread media coverage for our titles.
The HarperCollins Summer Internship Program is a paid 10-week program which runs from June 3 through August 8. All interns work Monday through Thursday, for a total of 28 hours per week. As a HarperCollins intern, you will learn about the entire publishing process - following one book from beginning to end while hearing from the people who worked on it in our weekly lunch and learn series. You will work on a publishing project throughout the summer with your fellow interns and have the opportunity to present your findings to senior staff. There are plenty of opportunities to network, and the end of the program culminates with a presentation called "How to Get a Job in Publishing" - offering advice on your resume, cover letter, interview, and networking. The recruitment team is searching for applicants who identify with groups that are traditionally underrepresented in the publishing industry.
Please submit a separate cover letter for each opportunity you apply to - applications without cover letters will not be considered.
You can submit up to five different cover letters at a time by uploading them to your profile and naming them after the positions.
