Summer Time Internship
Too many way overqualified college students go work at underpaying and under-satisfying positions for 3 months of their lives. I want to change that for 1 person.
What am I offering? An internship with me.
What does that entail? Lots of things: Researching ideas, developing some businesses, doing some writing, meeting with interesting people & gaining a lot of experience.
Why should anyone do it? Money of course is a part but more importantly experience
I have always felt that way too many young people were not given the recognition or credit for their skills.
What skills do I need to bring if I want the job?
-Â Â Â Be able to program, if not it’s okay but if you can code it’s more appealing.
-Â Â Â Have some idea what the latest websites are or at least be interested in learning.
-Â Â Â A strong desire for technology, learning and having fun.
Was that generic enough for you? Preferably be in the Bay Area but location really doesn’t matter.
What next?
As I have said before resumes suck. So email me or aim me your blog and a few sentences about something you created. I don’t care if it’s a desert or a website. Deadline for the position is 5/10/06.
PS. If you refer someone who is chosen you get either: a 3 month-link on my site or $50.

[...] If you’re moving towards a summer job, first you want to read this article by Ben Bleikamp about how you should skip the traditional summer internship and then, once you’re convinced your time is better spent doing something interesting (use an internship to explore!), consider taking on an internship with Noah Kagan. Noah’s offered a bounty of $50 to the referrer of his eventual peon, and if it’s me then tell him to give you the $50 so you can get a decent shirt and a couple beers. [...]
