Job Description

WRGB CBS6 has a great opportunity for you! We are looking for quarter or semester weather interns for our News Department. This unpaid internship is designed for students who are interested in broadcast meteorology, weather forecasting, or weather production, and are looking to gain hands-on experience in a professional newsroom.

We are seeking enthusiastic, motivated students who are excited to learn and get the most out of their internship experience. No prior newsroom experience is required—just a strong interest in weather and a willingness to learn.

As a weather intern, you will have the opportunity to interact with meteorologists and newsroom professionals while being exposed to the daily weather process—from forecast preparation and weather meetings to how weather stories are developed and shared across broadcast and digital platforms.

Requirements:

• Must be attending an accredited college or university and studying meteorology, atmospheric science, mass communications, or a related major
• Each intern is required to work 10–20 hours per week, including some weekends
• Must be 18 years of age
• Must receive academic credit for the internship experience
• Must be registered for college at his or her institution during the quarter or semester in which the internship is performed
• Must have reliable transportation

This is an unpaid, educational internship intended to provide valuable real-world experience in broadcast weather and forecasting.
