Hurry! Only a few days left to apply for Grist’s fall fellowship.

Want to flex your skills as a journalist and get paid? You have a few days left to apply for Grist’s fall 2018 fellowship. The deadline is Monday, July 9, 2018.

If you’re just now hearing about the fellowship, here’s the deal: We’re looking for early-career journalists to come work with us for six-month stints. This time around, we’re looking for all-stars in three areas: news, environmental justice, and video. You’ll find a full program description and application requirements here.

Our past fellows are continuing to do high-impact work. Emma Foehringer Merchant has you covered on all things energy and policy at Greentech Media. Sabrina Imbler makes consumers smarter about upcycled bananas and lots more at The Wirecutter, a New York Times Company. Vishakha Darbha, a digital fellow at Mother Jones, produces videos on forced family separations and other of-the-moment topics. Raven Rakia recently received a Livingston Award finalist nod for her powerful piece on The Intercept about women visitors at Rikers Island jail complaining of invasive searches. And break out the bubbly: Recent environmental justice fellow Justine Calma just joined Grist as a staff writer.

So what are you waiting for? Oh, right, the last possible minute. As long as we receive your application by 11:59 p.m. PT on July 9, no judgment here.

You know you want to be a Grist fellow. And now you have more time to apply.

Good news, procrastinators: We’re extending the application deadline for Grist’s spring 2017 fellowship. The new deadline is Monday, Nov. 14, 2016. The previous deadline was Nov. 8, i.e. Election Day. Please do get out and vote!

If you’re just now hearing about the fellowship, here’s the gist: We’re looking for early-career journalists to come work with us for six months and get paid. This time around, we’re looking for all-stars in three different areas: editorial, justice, and video. You’ll find a full program description and application requirements here.

Our current crop of fellows has been crushing it. Emma Foehringer Merchant tracked how much climate change was mentioned (or rather, hardly mentioned) during the presidential debates. Sabrina Imbler has doubled as a budding on-screen star and writer (if you haven’t already, check out this insightful profile of a young activist in Peru). And Amy McDermott flipped some spooky stats about climate change into a zany Halloween how-to. We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: We ❤️ our fellows.

So what are you waiting for? Oh, right, the last possible minute. As long as we receive your application by 11:59 p.m. PT on Nov. 14, no judgment here.
