In this internship, you’ll have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the world of publishing and editorial work. You’ll work closely with our editorial team, assisting in various tasks related to content creation, editing, and publication.

Who you are:

You’re the go-to person for knowing what’s hot in the world of food and nutrition—whether it’s the latest TikTok recipe trend, a viral gut health hack, or a new study making waves in wellness circles. You already follow all the big nutrition and foodie influencers on TikTok and Instagram, and you have a sixth sense for spotting what’s going to blow up next🤓

You love taking timely topics and turning them into engaging, shareable content that’s both informative and fun. Whether it’s explaining why everyone’s suddenly drinking chlorophyll water or diving into the science behind a new diet trend, you’re skilled at making complex ideas feel accessible and exciting. You’re not just a great writer—you also know how to ask the right questions. Interviewing experts comes naturally to you, and you’re excited to tap into expert knowledge to bring credibility and depth to your work.

This internship is your chance to dig into the fast-paced world of nutrition and food news, sharpen your storytelling and interview skills, and create buzzworthy content that keeps readers informed, inspired, and ahead of the trends.

  • Create Q&As and conduct interviews with MyFitnessPal dietitians to gather and incorporate expert quotes into articles
  • Assist in fact-checking and editing to ensure accuracy and quality across all content
  • Build and format articles in the content management system (CMS) following best practices for SEO and readability
  • Track the performance of your content and use data insights to inform future ideas
  • Actively seek feedback from editors and dietitians to continuously improve storytelling and technical skills
  • Live our core values in all you do:
    • Be Kind and Care
    • Live Good Health
    • Be Data-Inspired
    • Champion Change
    • Leave it Better than You Found It
    • Make It Happen

  • Passion for food and nutrition trends. You’re deeply interested in the latest nutrition and foodie trends, with an instinct for spotting emerging topics and viral moments on TikTok, Instagram, and other platforms
  • Strong writing skills. You can craft engaging, accessible, and buzzworthy content that resonates with a wide audience, from breaking down complex science to covering fun food trends
  • Interview skills! You know how to ask the right questions to create insightful Q&As and weave expert quotes seamlessly into your pieces, adding credibility and depth
  • Attention to detail. You’re thorough in your research, fact-checking, and editing, ensuring all content is accurate, high-quality, and aligned with the MyFitnessPal brand

  • Technical savvy. You’re comfortable using a CMS to build and format articles and follow SEO and readability best practices
  • Collaborative spirit. You work well with teams, taking feedback from editors and dietitians to refine your work and improve your skills
  • Reliable access to the internet and comfortable in a remote working environment
