HuffPost is hiring an editor for its award-winning Spanish-language site, Voces . We're looking for someone who is as interested in immigration reform as they are in the Latin Grammys, as well-read on Marco Rubio as they are on Paulina Rubio.

Applicants should be hungry self-starters eager to learn and contribute in a fast-paced, fun environment. We are looking for go-getter news and internet junkies with strong web and social media skills to work closely with our editorial team. This is a great opportunity to learn all the ins and outs of new media and get first-hand exposure to how The Huffington Post works.

Requirements for success:

- Insatiable appetite for news and information

- Strong research and writing skills

- Enamored with the power and influence of social media

- Meticulous dedication to detail and the ability to multitask

- Creativity and confidence to share your unique perspective and ideas

- Ability to receive constructive criticism professionally, and quickly apply the feedback

- A demonstrated excitement about HuffPost’s editorial mission



The HuffPost Fellowship usually lasts four to six months, giving our Fellows the opportunity to discover whether HuffPost is the right place to launch their career.

This is a paid program providing experience and training from beginning to end. We focus on teaching our Fellows everything there is to know about how the Huffington Post approaches web publishing. This program is based in AOL’s New York office in Greenwich Village.
