San Francisco, United States KQED Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

Deadline to apply for KQED Internships is Friday June 7th, 2024. Please state which internship(s) you are applying for in your cover letter and apply to each one individually. 

This is a paid internship, working 16 hours per week from July 8th, 2024 through December 20th 2024. Current Salary is $18.07 per hour. 

Position Summary:

The Audience Intelligence team is charged with providing KQED with the data needed to make data informed decisions. The team serves as the central data hub for the organization and works with a variety of departments including news, science, arts, marketing, foundations and audience development. The Audience Intelligence intern will have many responsibilities including the mining of previous survey data sets for insights, and supporting future research through completion of qualitative interviews, questionnaire development, and survey analysis. The intern will also have the lead on a project allowing them to complete the internship with a deliverable that can be used in their future job search.
This role is typically the best fit for candidates who are motivated by questions about how people think and behave, and who are considering careers involving UX, market, product, or design research. Applicants who are mainly interested in quantitative analysis are encouraged to apply instead to our analytics internship.

KQED envisions a public media organization with a culture that centers on human dignity, equity, and belonging. This will enable us to better serve and reflect the Bay Area through diverse and inclusive storytelling. 

We value the contributions of marginalized people in society — including Black, Indigenous, and all people of color,  people with disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ people — and we believe that these communities must be centered in the work we do, and we strongly encourage members of these communities to apply.

The mission that drives us:

KQED provide citizens of Northern California with a community-supported alternative to commercial media.   We provide citizens with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions; convene community dialogue; bring the arts to everyone and engage audiences to share their stories. We help students and teachers thrive in 21st-century classrooms, and take people of all ages on journeys of exploration- exposing them to new people, places and ideas.

This role requires working in KQED's newly renovated headquarters and working in the field. KQED requires employees to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

Essential Functions:
  • Help develop new insights and analyses that inform organizational decisions and help us continue to engage our audiences through research projects
  • Support research projects with interviews, questionnaire development, analysis, and learnings
  • Presentation building for a variety of stakeholders
  • Develop reports and visualizations to convey research findings
  • Analyze and interpret information from multiple data sources.
  • Other Duties as assigned

Knowledge/Experience Required:

  • An academic background in the social sciences (psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science, behavioral economics, cognitive linguistics, etc.) is preferred, but we also consider applicants with design and STEM backgrounds
  • Basic knowledge of probability and statistics
  • Interest in data analysis and visualization
  • Excellent writing, research, and communication skills
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Problem-solving acumen
  • Capacity to balance multiple responsibilities
  • Ability to work independently
  • Bonus points for fluency in languages of data manipulation or statistical analysis (e.g. Python, R, or SQL)

Growth & Development Opportunities:
Audience Intelligence interns have a huge impact on what we do. They are a full-fledged member of our team and their life experience, opinions, and ideas bring fresh approaches to the work we do and are incredibly valuable. As part of the audience intelligence team, the intern will learn what it means to put our audiences first as we look to find the stories in their data that will allow us to grow a younger, more diverse audience base. This internship will help develop and hone analytical, and communication skills. If there is anything specific an intern wants to learn about audience intelligence, we are committed to making that happen.
