Scanlon gestured for us to gather around her. “Okay, girls, here’s the plan. I need to run up to editorial to check in with my team and go over a few quick items. Then I’ll show you around the office a little, and we’ll get you sitting in with some of the different departments. So for now, I’m going to introduce you to a few junior interns and let you hear from them about what it’s like to work here.” Ivy caught my eye. “Dakota,” she mouthed, and I nodded. “What are interns?” Tally asked. Mrs. Scanlon was already walking down the hall in the direction Helvetica had gone, and we scrambled to catch up. “Well, Tally, they’re people who need experience in the field. Being an intern is sort of like doing a training program. They have the opportunity to work for the magazine and learn the ropes of the business,” she told us. “Some of them are college students, but City Nation also has a junior intern program for younger people. We have several interns about your age who come in after school and sometimes during their vacations.”
