We’ll be posting this to the eduFire blog shortly but I wanted to give readers of my blog the first crack at landing an internship at eduFire this summer (I promise you will have more fun than the girl in this random photo I found!!). I figured anyone who is into stuff like customer development, entrepreneur podcasts and start-up stories would be a pretty good fit for us.
A few benefits of a summer internship with eduFire:
#1 – Work alongside some sharp people and learn a *ton*. Trust me on this one, you’ll probably receive an MBA’s worth of education in a single summer (and this is coming from someone who received an MBA from a Top 10 school).
#2 – A great name on your resume. We’re funded by a Sand Hill Road VC so you’ll have a good name to add to your resume. Can’t hurt in this economy!
#3 – Super convenient! We’re located in SOMA in SF, incredibly close to Cal-Train and a # of bus lines and walking distance from BART. A great commute for anyone in the Bay Area.
#4 – Free eduFire classes, tutoring sessions, etc. If you’re looking to learn a language, prep for an exam, etc. we’ll hook you up with vouchers to take free classes and tutoring sessions on our site. Not a bad perk!!
#5 – Meaningful work. If you’ve read our blog you know that we’re about trying to change education for the better. What could be a better use of your time between school years than trying to make the education system itself a little bit (or a lot!) better?
We’re mostly looking for people who are local although we might hire an exceptional candidate who is remote. We’re looking for all sorts of backgrounds but the ideal for us would be people with experience in marketing (especially social media) and customer experience (especially usability). If you feel you might fit the bill shoot an email and a resume to jon at edufire dot com and title it “eduFire Summer Internship”.
Looking forward to hearing from you!!
