Interns start blog

Shefali_as

Interns at the Spokane Spokesman-Review have a good thing going.

They are doing a group blog that tells other people about their internship and how to land one.

Shefali Kulkarni, left, pitched the idea as a piggyback to the transparent newsroom initiative.

On the blog, she writes, "if you show interest in multiple departments at the newspaper you're working for, you just might have new opportunities open up to you."

See what else she, Somer, Sam, Parker, Jared, Shadra, Sasha, Sarah and Carrie have to say.
