The Daily Show is looking for eager and adaptable candidates for our spring, summer and fall internship semesters.

This is a production-focused opportunity where interns will learn the inner workings of a legacy late-night show. Each intern will work directly with various departments to learn how the show is made from the ground up each day.

Those departments include, but are not limited to, Audience, Talent, Post-Production and Field. We rely heavily on our interns and consider them to be the backbone of production, which is why it's important that interns are both excited to be here and understand that even though this is a comedy show, it is a serious job.

The deadlines for each semester are as follows:

  • Spring semester candidates must apply by November 10th
  • Summer semester candidates must apply by March 30th
  • Fall semester candidates must apply by June 30th


    Aspiring candidates can apply directly to internship@thedailyshow.com with their cover letter and resume. Candidates should also specify which semester they wish to be considered for.
