Mail looking for trainees

The reporters (above) and subs (below) from the autumn course

In September and October I trained 16 young journalists who were beginning their career at the Daily Mail, Mail on Sunday and London’s Evening Standard. They included reporters, news subs and sports subs and two were on a Stephen Lawrence scholarship. We were fortunate that we were able to do the training in the Derry Street offices, rather than online. Most of the trainees then went on placement, working for the Mail in Dublin and Glasgow, the Press Association, the Evening Standard, Metro and the i newspaper. Others went straight to the newsroom. There has been impressive work and plenty of bylines. Now the Mail is recruiting for next year’s scheme. If you are committed to becoming a journalist and want to work for Britain's most successful newspaper group, you can apply for the sub's scheme here and the reporter's scheme here. The sports scheme will be advertised later this month. Good luck.
