Excellent way to break into the NYC start-up scene - Editorial Intern AlleyWatch Employee Review

My internship gave me a great opportunity to learn more about the startup scene in NYC by taking part in a number of events and activities that I would not have normally had access to.

The workload can be quite heavy from time to time depending on the company's projects.

Allowed me to gain experience with social media and copy editing; covered business news for the first time.

Copy editing was only fixing grammar or spelling, not working with authors to make writing better; Work by telecommute so no sense of community; was supposed to have an editor check-in every week and mentor—did not happen.
