How do I get a volunteer position?

05/10/2023 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS

There are several ways to get a volunteer position in a newsroom. Here are some steps you can take:

Research: identify newsrooms you'd like to work for. Look at what media and publications they produce and what topics they cover.

Make contacts: look for contacts in the editorial offices where you would like to apply. Check out the newsroom's website to see who is in charge of human resources or editorial management and try to contact them. You could also try contacting editors or editorial staff via social media or LinkedIn.

Application: write a compelling application explaining why you want to volunteer in this newsroom, what experience and skills you bring to the table, and what you hope to gain from the experience. You should also include your portfolio or samples of your work to support your skills and experience.

Internships: Also consider doing internships in newsrooms in the meantime to gain experience and make contacts. Internships can often be a stepping stone to a volunteer position.

Network: Go to events and conferences hosted by journalists and editors to expand your network and make contacts. This is also a great way to hear about new opportunities.

It's important to be persistent and determined when pursuing a volunteer position in a newsroom. It can be a challenging and competitive industry, but showing passion and commitment will increase your chances of achieving your goal.
