    Attention! The Bois seek an intern

     

    The bois are seeking an intern for Fall/Winter!!

     

    No, actually wait. Scratch that.

     

    {The bois are seeking an incredibly driven, multi-talented, boi or boi-affirming intern to set the tone for interns from now until forever.}

     

    *About the bois* We are a collective of artists and social entrepreneurs. bklyn boihood is becoming a space that supports bois of color through special events like parties, workshops, collaborations, and speaking engagements. We manage a robust interactive social media platform that impacts thousands of unique users (members of our community) a day. Our reach has grown from a few blocks around Nostrand Ave. to over 50 countries and every state.

    We meet weekly (sometimes more, sometimes less) + work daily. Sometimes it's fun; sometimes it's tedious.

     

    *About you* Our intern from 9/15-1/31/13. Prepare to learn a lot, work a lot, play a lot. Be great at receiving feedback and taking self-direction. We all get coffee and snacks for each other so prepare to pick up tasks like that without a second thought. We don't get paid so neither will you. But we are willing to offer college credit. Additionally, we will cover your transportation, feed you and make sure you have a good time.

     

    Our ideal intern:

     

    • Is a queer POC. (We'd especially love to work with bois who fit inside our mission.)

    • Is at least 18 years of age, willing to be photographed/recorded

    • Works hard, plays hard.

    • Is in or near Bklyn, NY & able to commit 8-10 hrs/week through January 31st.

    • Is really good or getting really good at AT LEAST one of these things: writing, graphic design, database management, merchandising and design, website management, fundraising, policy organizing, facilitation...or if you have a particular skill that isn't named but you think is valuable, tell us!

    • Is willing to speak on behalf of/represent bklyn boihood

     

    Send us your resume (which should always include a cover letter) & something else that illustrates you. Anything else. Make it fun or funky...or serious.

    <3, the bois

     

     

    Deadline: September 10th 2012.
