Random House Associates Program

Random House is home to many of the world's most popular authors such as John Grisham, Danielle Steel, Michael Crichton, Anne Rice, Dean Koontz, and Dr. Seuss. Week after week our titles lead the best seller lists.

While some college graduates express a desire to work in a specific field in publishing, such as marketing, editorial, or publicity, others may be equally passionate about publishing but want to know more before committing to an area. Such individuals may be interested in the Associates Program.

This one-year program is based in New York City and provides a year of training and exposure to many different aspects of the book publishing business. An associate is assigned to a specific publishing imprint or division and then rotates through its various departments. Understanding how different departments function, depend on, and relate to each other can help associates make a more informed decision about the next step in their publishing career.
