How often are new jobs added?

New internships are added continuously throughout the day. We monitor company career pages and hiring tools in real time, so most roles appear on InternshipsHQ shortly after they’re posted.

Why can I only view a limited number per day on the free plan?

The free plan is designed to let you explore the platform and see how fresh the listings are. Limits help us prioritize serious applicants and keep the signal high. Pro removes these limits and gives you full access.

What sources do you pull internships from?

We source internships directly from company career pages, startup hiring platforms, and applicant tracking systems like Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, and others. This helps us surface roles earlier and avoid repost-heavy job boards.

Are these internships legitimate?

Yes. We actively filter out expired, duplicate, misleading, and low-quality listings. Each role is checked for legitimacy and posting freshness so you’re not wasting time on dead or fake opportunities.

Can I filter by location, experience level, remote, or salary?

Yes. You can filter internships by role, location, experience level, remote or hybrid status, and pay when available. Pro users get access to more advanced and saved filters.

Why are early alerts so important?

For internships, timing matters more than volume. Most callbacks happen when roles are still new and applicant pools are small. Early alerts help you apply before listings get flooded.

Do you show salary or pay information?

When companies include pay information, we display it clearly. Not all internships list salary upfront, but we prioritize transparency whenever the data is available.

Is InternshipsHQ suitable for senior or experienced roles?

InternshipsHQ is primarily built for internships, entry-level, and early-career roles. If you’re looking for senior or leadership positions, you may find limited results here.

About The Company

Here, everyone makes an impact. Local life runs on local information: what happened down the street, who can fix this, where should we go tonight. NewsBreak began in 2015 to give everyone a place to find that out, and today more than 40 million people a month rely on us to understand what’s going on in their own zip code. That work has grown into three platforms with one vision: powering local life. Led by founder and CEO Jeff Zheng, NewsBreak is our local life and news platform; Nearby AI connects people with the businesses and services around them; and NDot AI gives publishers and creators the tools to grow and earn from their audiences. All three are built on the same underlying technology. We’re building for the long term, and we invest in the people who build with us. We’re headquartered in Mountain View, with offices in Seattle and New York. We’re Great Place to Work® certified and named to Fast Company’s Best Workplaces for Innovators (2025) and Fortune’s Best Workplaces in the Bay AreaTM (2026). Help us power local life, whether you write code, shape products, tell our story, or run the business. Wherever you sit, your work reaches the people and communities we serve. We look for people who want to solve complex problems and own projects end to end; who stay curious and say what they think in service of a shared goal. If that’s you, we’d like to meet you. Six values shape how we work together. Results matter: Purpose guides everything we do. Eyes on the prize. Growth mindset: We embrace new challenges with curiosity and zeal. Strive for excellence: We give everything 100%, no matter how big or small the task may be. Fight as one: We believe open, direct, and healthy discussion is the best way to achieve our shared vision. User obsession: We empathize deeply with our users. Their experience is key to our success. Strategic, long-term thinking: We don’t take shortcuts. We sacrifice short-term gains for much larger future returns.

About the role

NewsBreak is building ReelBee, an open short-drama distribution platform where any qualified creator or studio can self-publish, earn a transparent revenue share, and get real US audience insights. This is a CEO-sponsored, company-level initiative. As a Creative Editor Intern you will cut the trailers and paid-social creatives that bring viewers to great short dramas, and learn directly from performance data what makes people stop scrolling. This is a 3–6 month internship (at least 24 hours per week) with 2 openings, hiring in parallel in the SF Bay Area (Mountain View) and Beijing.

Pay: $22–$30 per hour (US), depending on experience and location.

What you'll do

Cut short dramas into 15–60 second trailers and acquisition creatives (9:16, hook in the first 3 seconds) for Meta, TikTok and Google ads and in-app recommendations, mainly for titles whose partners did not supply creatives or supplied ones that fall short
Run quality checks on creatives submitted by content partners (specs, subtitles, hook, ad-platform policy compliance) and lightly re-edit those that do not pass
Each week, produce batches of creative variants (different hooks, end CTAs, subtitle styles) per the growth team's test plan, and iterate based on CTR/CPI data
Run TikTok / YouTube Shorts / Instagram short-drama channels: edit highlight clips and commentary-style content and keep a steady posting rhythm
Use AI tools (auto-subtitles, voice-over, translation, smart editing) to raise output and build reusable creative templates

What we're looking for

Currently enrolled or a recent graduate in film, media, design or a related field, with short-form video editing work to show (please include portfolio links)
Proficiency in at least one of Premiere, CapCut, or DaVinci Resolve; After Effects or motion graphics a plus
A heavy user of short dramas or vertical video who understands hooks and beat-matching, and can explain why an ad creative makes people stop
Curious about data: willing to look at CTR and CPI and edit accordingly, not just for looks
Able to read and write English subtitles; familiarity with overseas social ad guidelines is a plus
Familiarity with AI editing, subtitle and voice tools is a plus
