Stage of Life also services corporate clients in a consulting capacity so interns will have access to working directly with the CEO on existing clients ranging from a NYSE-traded bank, a national non-profit, a national airline account, and other leads in the business development pipeline.
The position reports directly to the PR/Marketing Coordinator of the company. Projects will be intensive and hands-on, and in many cases ...very creative.
Preferred Majors: English, Business, Marketing, Professional Writing
Interns should possess:
- independent thinking
- the desire to learn
- ability to brainstorm/make proactive suggestions based on projects assigned
- ability to take constructive criticism as part of the position's learning experience.
- the desire to make a real difference with a start-up company.
Required: A personal laptop computer with wireless connectivity to bring and use for the position.
Positions are unpaid; however, CEO/Founder will work with intern on
any paperwork needed to apply for course credit for the position. The
work environment is relaxed and non-traditional as it takes place in the
remodeled attic office loft of a 1905 brick
home complete with sky lights and a work space specifically set up for
interns. Please note - the office does has a dog (a Pug) and a cat.
Hours are flexible as long as a schedule is determined/maintained
between intern and the CEO. The internship, can also take place
virtually as "in-person" meetings can be scheduled.
If you're looking for an exciting, hands-on, and completely
creative internship with a start-up company (check out the "About" page), then we look forward to hearing from you.
