Ed’s Buddy System

Every spring, Ed’s Buddy System matches recent college grads who want to work in the magazine media industry with junior editors who are already working in New York City. Your Buddy will accompany you to Ed events, show you around NYC if you are new, and give you advice about how to find your first magazine media job. The relationship continues for an entire year, and longer if you wish. And because you are matched with someone who is only a year or two ahead of you, chances are you’ll also make a friend, too. This service is free.

You must meet these requirements:
-Must be a college or grad school graduate as of May 2018
-Must be out of school no longer than 12 months
-Must be living in, or have plans to move to, NYC by June 2018 (you want to actually meet your buddy, not just connect to them on social)

-Must be dead-set on being in magazines (digital or print)
-Must be available to attend the Ed2010 Buddy System Happy Hour (date tbd)

Do you want to be a mentor? Ed is looking for any Editorial Assistant or Assistant Editor from any magazine or content website.
