Audible’s “Next Chapter” Returnship Program

Audible’s “Next Chapter” Returnship Program is a 16-week paid full-time internship for experienced professionals returning to the workforce after taking time off for caregiving. The program is open to professionals who have at least 5 years of professional experience and have been out of the paid workforce for at least one year to focus on caring for a child or other dependent. If you meet these criteria, we welcome you to apply.

This is a super exciting initiative and one that is close to my heart.

Anne Erni Audible’s Chief People Officer

At Audible, we launched our “Next Chapter” Returnship Program because we appreciate the skills you can offer, the perspective you provide, and the contributions you will make. This program offers you a chance to revamp your skills, update your resume with new experiences, and make connections with other professionals. It also offers support through Path Forward, a nonprofit organization that assists people in transitioning back to the workforce.

This 16-week return-to-work program is hybrid. Upon successful completion of the returnship, there is the possibility of an offer for full-time employment. Our program offers fully remote roles, as well as roles based in our Newark, NJ; Cambridge, MA; or Los Angeles, CA hubs.

Offers for full-time roles based in a hub location are contingent upon candidates’ advance commitment to reside or relocate to within commuting distance of the hub. Relocation assistance will be provided for those full-time opportunities.

I’m thrilled Audible is pursuing this program. By offering caregivers the ability to onramp back into the workforce, we are recruiting and developing highly motivated talent while also continuing our commitment to creating an inclusive team.
