Web Crazed Intern

at kgb web in New York, NY   —   Nov 01, 2009   |  
Overview
kgb web is looking for a team of web-crazy summers interns to join us for the summer and potentially beyond. There is more than one position available.

This is a remarkable opportunity to play an active role at a major technology start-up that is solving big problems and transforming the way information is delivered and consumed on the internet. This is not your typical summer internship and a very rare opportunity.

The Company

The best of both worlds. We are an internet start-up incubated within a leading global information services company, kgb (formerly InfoNXX). We enjoy the strength and resources of an established organization coupled with the dynamic of a start-up. It's been working well for us.

Our mission is simple: completely redefine the way users get their content on the web. Our office is extremely open and collegiate. It is filled with smiles, ping pong, video games, ideas, movies, pizza, and laughter. We make sure that coming to work is a good time.

We’re a very eclectic bunch of intelligent, energetic, and fun entrepreneurs. We all share a common respect and a commitment to taking whatever we do, fun or work, to the max. Good ideas thrive above all else.

Note: Our group is not affiliated with any of kgb's current products. We are a separate R&D type unit within the larger organization.

The Job

At kgb web our interns are actively involved from Day 1. You will be looked upon as any other member of the team and will be exposed to major initiatives. This is not a fluff job and you will get to work on serious projects that have an actual and major impact. We will also have various fun events throughout the summer for the intern team. At the end of the internship, you will be able to point to a major consumer web site and say that you were a key part of making it happen.

We only hire the best and therefore have a rigorous resume screening and interview process. But once you become part of the team, we are confident it will be one of the most exciting, enjoyable, and rewarding jobs you can have.

Benefits

*Food, Drinks, Amenities, Parties
*Paid (based on experience and credentials)

And Then

If you think the kgb intern team needs you, send your resume, links to your social media profiles (and blog if you have one), along with a friendly note telling us a little bit about yourself to:

jobs@kgbweb.com

(Note: Avoid formal cover letters and the procrastination that comes with them. Just let it flow!)
