Mailonline looking for trainee journalists



The MailOnline trainees returned to Kensington this week after their three-month placements at the Mail in Glasgow and Dublin, the Press Association and the Manchester Evening News. It is good to have them back. They are having training on the content system with Nick Enoch before joining the newsroom. I said goodbye to the Daily Mail’s reporting trainees on Friday who are are now off on their placements and I have one final week with the trainee subs who are creating pages for breaking stories and new sections and supplements. 

This year's MailOnline trainees (and me)

My attention now turns to recruiting for the next MailOnline course which will start in March. The new trainees will have four weeks training at the Mail's offices in Derry Street, followed by three months' placement in the regions before returning to the MailOnline newsroom. We are looking for young journalists for both news and sport who want to work for one of the world’s biggest English-language newspaper website. This is a hugely rewarding job. If you are looking for nine-to-five, though, it's not for you. Trainees need to be prepared to work for a round-the-clock operation with nightshifts and regular weekends. But if you fancy covering national and international news and sport at a fast pace, we look forward to hearing from you. The details on how to apply are here
