Apply for On the Money Paid Internship for Chicago Residents
OTM Fall Internship
Part Time (Sept - Dec)
Must be a Chicago high school student
Love to write? On the Money Magazine (OTM) is a by-teens for-teens publication. Each semester, high school interns from across the city of Chicago come together to research and publish articles relating to finance and entrepreneurship. We are looking for teens interested in writing an article for our next edition of On the Money Magazine. This internship will take place in association with DePaul University's Writing Center. In addition to writing an article for the magazine, you will gain skills in building a resume, financial literacy, public speaking, writing, and interviewing skills.
Interviews will tentatively be held on in September. The internship will run through the end of December 2026. Students are encouraged to submit their resume and writing samples prior to their interview. (They can be attached to this application at the end.)
Please email iguzman@econcouncil.org with any additional questions.
